Two Canadian women who had been living in ISIS-held territory with their children have surrendered to U.S.-backed forces in Syria, according to the head of a non-profit organization that urged them to turn themselves in.

Alexandra Bain, director of Families Against Violent Extremism (FAVE), told CBC News that one of the women, a mother with two children, contacted her over the weekend from the city of Baghuz as Syrian Democratic Forces approached the area.

Baghuz, in eastern Syria near the Iraq border, is one of the last remaining pieces of land under the grip of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.

Global Affairs Canada said in an email statement to CBC News that it is "aware of Canadian citizens being detained in Syria," but its ability to provide consular assistance is "extremely limited" given the security situation on the ground.

"Canadian diplomats have established a communication channel with local Kurdish authorities in order to verify the whereabouts and well-being of Canadian citizens," said government spokesperson Richard Walker.

Bain, speaking on the phone from Fredericton, said the woman who contacted her said she was with a second Canadian woman who also has two children.

CBC News has been unable to independently verify the identities of the two women and their children.

FAVE, which works with families whose members have been exposed to or joined violent extremist groups overseas, says there may be as many as 27 Canadians being held in Kurdish-controlled areas of Syria.

'Her final chance'
Bain said that over the course of her exchanges with the Canadian woman — conducted with a messaging service over a spotty internet connection — she learned the woman had virtually no idea about the dangerous political situation around her.

Bain described the woman as "uncertain" and "afraid."

Leaving them there only feeds the ISIS narrative that the West hates Muslims, that the West hates Islam.

Initially, the woman said she intended to walk to the nearest camp in Iraqi territory, said Bain, but she advised against it, saying many children had lost their lives on that cold walk and she would likely face punishment by death if apprehended by Iraqi forces.

Instead, Bain encouraged the woman to approach a Kurdish militia vehicle that would take her to Al Hol, a displacement camp in northeastern Syria — advice the Canadian woman heeded.

"She said she had been trying for the past seven months to escape ISIS with her children ... I guess she saw it as her final chance," Bain told CBC News by phone.

The FAVE director described the woman as sounding like she had been "in a bubble" and, "She would have only been getting news from ISIS over the past several years."

The woman didn't disclose her reasons for travelling to Syria, Bain said.

"She just knew she wanted to get out."

Unknown where women travelled from
Bain declined to disclose where the women were from in Canada, saying their names and stories would likely come to light should they be criminally investigated. It's unclear why or how long the two women were living in Syria.

The researcher said that of the Canadians in ISIS territory, the majority are children who had no choice in their parents' decision to go to Syria.

Amarnath Amarasingam, a Toronto-based senior research fellow with the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, told CBC News he knows of at least four men, five women and 11 Canadian children who are still in Kurdish custody in Syria.

In many cases, those Canadians have left family members behind. Bain said every family she's spoken with has found itself in that position and is "horrified."

"It's broken their hearts."

Canada won't immediately act to repatriate
News of the two Canadian women's surrender comes just days after the U.S. State Department issued a statement calling on its allies to repatriate its citizens detained in the conflict — something Canada's Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale told CBC News this week he would not risk Canadian lives to do.

Global Affairs Canada confirmed in a statement there is no agreement in place to repatriate the Canadians detained in Syria.

Responding to reporters' questions on Wednesday, Goodale said the government is "considering the best way forward to make sure that Canada and Canada's national security are properly protected. We've heard the request or the suggestion from the United States. But at this point, the fact of the matter remains that is a dangerous and dysfunctional part of the world, in which we have no diplomatic presence."

Bain argues Canada should act quickly, citing a UN special rapporteur who has said the Canadian government has a legal obligation to repatriate its citizens.

She said leaving the Canadians in Syria also raises another problem.

"Leaving them there only feeds the ISIS narrative that the West hates Muslims, that the West hates Islam," Bain said.

"Bringing these kids home, and healing them and allowing them to lead productive lives encourages them in the future to stand up against violent extremism — to be a voice against joining things like ISIS, and that's really what we're hoping for."

Canadian women emerge from ISIS's crumbling caliphate

Global Affairs aware of Canadians detained in Syria

Published Saturday, February 9, 2019

Global Affairs Canada has confirmed that it is aware of Canadian citizens being detained in Syria.

That confirmation came Saturday after CNN reported that it had interviewed two Canadian women who had recently fled one of ISIS’ last remaining strongholds: the village of Baghouz in eastern Syria. The two women, who spoke fluent English, said they were from Toronto and Alberta and travelled to Syria at their husbands’ insistence.

With the help of U.S. airpower, the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) are currently fighting to rout ISIS from the village, which sits along the Euphrates River near Syria’s border with Iraq.

“Given the security situation on the ground, the Government of Canada’s ability to provide consular assistance in any part of Syria is extremely limited,” Global Affairs spokesperson Richard Walker said in a statement to CTV News.

“The Government of Canada is engaged in these cases and is providing assistance -- to the limited extent possible.”

Canadian officials, Walker added, “have established a communications channel with local Kurdish authorities in order to verify the whereabouts of some Canadian citizens.”

“Reports of an agreement concerning the repatriation of Canadian citizens from Syria are false,” Walker stated.

‘EATING PRINGLES AND TWIX BARS’

One of the two women interviewed by CNN correspondent Ben Wedeman on Feb. 9 identified herself as 28-year-old Dura Ahmed of Toronto.

Wedeman spoke to Ahmed in a barren desert plain in eastern Syria, where scores of civilians and suspected ISIS members fleeing fighting in nearby Baghouz were being questioned after surrendering themselves to the U.S.-backed SDF.

With her face masked by a black niqab, Ahmed recounted how she came to Syria from Canada four years ago at her husband’s urging.

“I didn’t know anything about ISIS or anything,” she claimed in the CNN interview, speaking with a distinctly North American accent. “He said, ‘Just come and see, just come and see.’”

Ahmed described life in Raqqa, the one-time capital of ISIS’ so-called caliphate, in rather rosy terms.

“You’re there… you’re eating Pringles and Twix bars,” she recounted. “You don’t feel like you’re in a war.”

She also expressed little remorse for leaving the relative safety of Canada for perilous Syria.

“I believe in Shariah, wherever Shariah is,” Ahmed said. “Do I regret it? Coming, you mean? Like, no -- I don’t. Like in the sense, I had my kids here.”

The fate of Ahmed’s husband remains unclear.

‘I WAS JUST TRYING TO BE AN OBEDIENT WIFE’

CNN also interviewed a woman who claimed to be a 34-year-old former graphic designer from Alberta.

The woman, who wished to remain anonymous, said her husband had ordered her to come to the troubled country.

“He’s like, ‘It’s obligatory for you to come here -- you have no choice,’” she recalled. Like Ahmed, she spoke with a North American accent.

“He’s like, ‘I’m telling you to come here and as a Muslim wife, you have to obey,’” she said.

The woman eventually relented.

“Even though it was really hard for me to do it, I had to,” she said.

While in Syria, the woman said she lived a sheltered life, even keeping her children indoors.

“I didn’t let them go to school… because it’s dangerous, it’s too many bombings,” she said. “And they don’t speak Arabic, so I taught them myself.”

The woman, who was travelling with her two sons, said her first husband -- who she claimed worked as an ISIS cook -- was killed during fighting. She also claimed to be pregnant with her third child from her second husband: a Canadian who was also killed.

“I was just trying to be an obedient wife,” she said.

‘BRING THEM HOME NOW’

It is believed that more than two dozen Canadians are currently being held in Kurdish-controlled areas of Syria. Many, advocates say, want to come home.

Alexandra Bain is the director of Families Against Violent Extremism and Hayat Canada Family Support: groups that work with the families of those caught up in violent extremist groups like ISIS.

“It’s far better to bring them home now all together with a plan in safety and security than to leave them alone in the camps of Syria where they’re cold and hungry and sick,” Bain, who is also an associate professor of religious studies at St. Thomas University in Fredericton, N.B., told CTV News.

Canada, however, has so far resisted calls to repatriate Canadian fighters in Syria and their families, who could face up to 10 years in prison in the country if they were involved with groups like ISIS.

Amarnath Amarasingam is a senior research fellow at the London, U.K.-based Institute for Strategic Dialogue and a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Waterloo who researches extremism. Amarasingam says he understands the government’s stance.

“We don’t know what happens to them, we don’t know where they’d go next and we have no real eyes on them once they’re out of the prison,” he told CTV News.

Even if the detained Canadians managed to leave war-torn Syria, they would very likely be arrested and charged in neighbouring countries if they were affiliated with ISIS.

Law society probes lawyer's relationship with terrorist client

Published on: February 10, 2019

ISIS / Terrorism Related News - Page 3 Capture-8-e1549834509149

Lawyer Rishma Gupta (Facebook)

A Toronto criminal lawyer faces an investigation into her relationship with a terrorist client after jail-guards alleged they saw videos of her crawling under the table during jail-house visits, the Toronto Sun has learned.

Rishma Gupta promised the Law Society of Ontario on Sept. 4, 2018 that she’d stop practising while law society investigators pursued their probe of her relationship with alleged terrorist client Pamir Hakimzadah.

ISIS / Terrorism Related News - Page 3 Dfssd

Pamir Hakimzadah

She is not admitting to the alleged “professional misconduct or lack of capacity to practise law at this time,” her Aug. 28, 2018 undertaking to the law society stated.

By making this undertaking, Gupta avoided a public temporary licence suspension hearing where the allegations that prompted the investigation would have been revealed, sources told the Sun.

On Feb. 1, 2019, Hakimzadah pleaded guilty to terrorism charges in Toronto as he admitted he left Canada to participate in ISIS terrorist activity on the same day day Parliament Hill was attacked by a gunman who murdered Cpl. Nathan Cirillo.

Hakimzadah, now 29, flew from Toronto to Amsterdam on Oct. 22, 2014 and then travelled to Istanbul, Turkey the next day, court heard. Hakimzadah, who will be sentenced Feb. 26, is now represented by Toronto criminal lawyer Luka Rados.

While Hakimzadah was represented by Gupta, she visited him at Toronto South Detention Centre in a private meeting room which allows an an inmate and a lawyer to face one another at a wall-to-wall table.

Guards, who intermittently monitor these rooms through a window, allegedly spotted Gupta with her feet on Hakimzadah’s lap as he massaged them, sources told the Sun.

Gupta was issued a warning, but on a subsequent visit, guards allegedly caught her repeating this behaviour and suspended her visiting privileges with her client.

Guards reviewed previous videotaped visits by Gupta and allegedly discovered she crawled under the table towards her client on multiple occasions. None of the allegations have been proven.

“She has co-operated with the law society, but she’s not the subject of a disciplinary hearing,” said Gupta’s lawyer, Nadia Liva, in an interview. “She denies any inappropriate sexual contact with any client.”

The law society doesn’t comment on active investigations.

Gupta, who passed the bar in 2014, “was an assertive lawyer with a large number of clients,” said a member of the large downtown firm where she worked before leaving and signing the law society undertaking.

Hakimzadah was charged in 2017 with leaving the country to join a terrorist group on or about Oct. 22, 2014, the day that Cirillo was murdered by a man who pledged allegiance to the Islamic State and just two days after another follower fatally ran down Canadian Forces Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu.

Speaking outside a downtown courthouse after Hakimzadah’s 2017 arrest, Gupta told reporters her client was “kind of shocked by these charges.

“He’s upset,” Gupta told Global News after her client appeared briefly in April 2017. “They’re serious charges.”

Hakimzadah’s plan was foiled when a Turkish cabbie suspected “he was trying to join ISIS and turned him over to the police,” court heard on Feb. 1 when he pleaded guilty to those serious charges.

Turkish authorities deported him back to Canada on Nov. 19, 2014 and banned him from entering Turkey for one year. After he returned from Turkey, the young man “privately admitted that he left Canada for the purposes of contributing to the fight for Allah but authorities caught and detained him,” court heard on Feb. 1.

Canadian militant says ISIS foreign fighters 'hung out to dry'

Mohammad Ali is pleading for help from the Canadian government

Agence France-Presse
February 11, 2019

A Canadian militant detained in Syria on Sunday said he has been "hung out to dry" by ISIS like other foreign fighters and appealed to his government for help.

Mohammad Ali, 28, was captured by the US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) some nine months ago while trying to flee north into Turkey with his Canadian wife and two children.

He was interviewed at a detention centre in the northeastern city of Hasakeh in the presence of two members of the SDF, who are holding hundreds of foreign militants.

Ali, who joined ISIS in 2014 under the nom de guerre Abu Turab Al Kanadi, said he had been interrogated by the American FBI, CIA and US defence officials, but never visited by a Canadian official.

"Every time I get taken for an interrogation or an interview, I'm hoping it's with someone from the Canadian government, someone that can clarify my situation and give me a bit of hope."

"Up until now, nothing," he said. "I have nowhere else to go... How can they leave me sitting here like this in limbo?"

The Kurdish administration in northeastern Syria wants to send the prisoners back for trial, but governments in their countries of origin are often reluctant.

Canada's foreign ministry said it had opened a communication channel with Kurdish authorities but that there was no agreement on repatriation.

The Families Against Violent Extremism (FAVE) non-profit said it knew of 25 Canadians held by the SDF.

Ali was dressed in a grey robe, matching cap and tattered black sandals.

He repeatedly said he was "exhausted" and often paused for long periods before mumbling an answer.

Like many other captured accused ISIS members, he said he joined the group to fight President Bashar Al Assad's government.

He first worked in ISIS's lucrative oil ministry for four months because of his previous experience in Canada as an oil worker.

During that time, he used a prominent Twitter account to call on others to join the militants, but said he was never part of ISIS's formal media apparatus.

He spent the following three years as a fighter and trainer, but said he always refused to shoot civilians.

"That's not why I came here," he said.

Ali said he began doubting his decision to join ISIS in late 2016, as the militants began to lose territory and turn against foreigners, including a Dutch friend of his who was executed by the group.

"The foreigners feel they were left out, hung out to dry, they've been used and abused," he said.

He paid a smuggler to take his Canadian wife, who he met under ISIS in Syria, and their two young girls north from Deir Ezzor province to the Turkish border.

Ali said he was planning to go to the Canadian embassy in Ankara but was caught by the SDF before crossing into Turkey.

He said he has been unable to speak to his wife or daughters, or his family in Canada, since being detained.

"All I think about is my wife and kids," he said.

Hundreds of ISIS-affiliated men, women and children have streamed out of the group's shrinking pocket in east Syria in the past two months, but journalists and advocates have limited access to them.

Ali said he was not aware of any SDF legal proceedings against him.

Asked what kind of future he was most afraid of, he said he feared being handed over to Syrian regime forces.

He is resigned to serving jail time at home but insisted he should not be considered in the same category as accused British ISIS executioners Alexanda Amon Kotey and El Shafee El Sheikh, also held by the SDF.

"Now the foreigners are trying to leave, trying to get back home," Ali told AFP.

"But a lot of the Syrians and the Iraqis, they're just melting back into the population, holding down for a while, and when things start again, they will rise back up.

"It doesn't really take a genius to figure this out. They have pockets in the desert, they have people intermingling with the population, acting as civilians, just biding their time."

'I broke no laws there': Canadian ISIS fighter wants help to return home

CTVNews.ca Staff, with a report from CTV Montreal's Vanessa Lee
Published Tuesday, February 12, 2019 6:53AM EST

An Ontario man who spent four years fighting for ISIS and used social media to recruit others now wants to return home with the help of the Canadian government.

Canadian Mohammed Ali says the Islamic State terror group is abandoning its foreign militants as it continues losing ground against U.S.-backed Kurdish fighters.

The 28-year-old says he, his Canadian wife and their two children have been "hung out to dry" and that it is no longer safe for them in Syria.

"Why shouldn't I be able to go home? I've done nothing in Canada. I've broken no laws there at all," said Ali in an interview.

Ali and his family attempted to flee to Turkey after he was cast out of the terror group, but were captured by coalition-led forces. They have been detained in a Syrian prison for the past nine months.

Ali fears the Islamic State militants still have sleeper cells and that members are hiding out until U.S. forces withdraw from the war zone.

"They have pockets in the desert; they've got people intermingling with the population, acting as civilians -- just biding their time," said Ali.

But he isn't the only Canadian in Syria asking for help.

On Sunday, two Canadian women fled one of ISIS' last remaining strongholds and surrendered to coalition forces, according to a report from CNN. The two women, who spoke fluent English, said they were from Toronto and Alberta and travelled to Syria at their husbands' insistence.

Non-profit group Families Against Violent Extremism, which says there are currently 27 Canadians detained in Syria, is lobbying for their return. The group says more than half of those detained are children under the age of five.

Global Affairs Canada previously confirmed that it is aware of Canadian citizens being detained in Syria, but said the government only has minimal means to provide aid.

"Given the security situation on the ground, the Government of Canada's ability to provide consular assistance in any part of Syria is extremely limited," Global Affairs spokesperson Richard Walker said in a statement to CTV News.

Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale told CTV Montreal's Vanessa Lee that repatriating foreign fighters and their families is not a priority. He added that Canada will not put its diplomatic officers at risk in a "dangerous and dysfunctional" part of the world.
