Another conviction in Canada.
Momin Khawaja, the Ottawa computer specialist who plotted jihad from his government desk, was found guilty of five terrorism-related charges on Wednesday, including financing and facilitating a group of British Islamist extremists plotting to bomb London and to wage Islamic jihad against the West.
Ontario Superior Court Justice Douglas Rutherford ruled that Khawaja, 29, played a significant role as financier, engineer and technical adviser to British terrorists.
The evidence shows Khawaja agreed to build 30 bomb detonators for violent jihadists, although it’s not clear whether he knew how those detonators would be used, the judge concluded.
