    Sensitive but unclassified -- please protect accordingly.

    ¶1. (SBU) SUMMARY:  In an unusual move, Canadian prosecutors
    terminated preliminary hearings in September and decided to move the
    defendants in the 2006 Ottawa and Toronto terrorism plots directly
    to trial.  Ontario courts will now revisit the confinement
    conditions of each of the suspected terrorists, though insiders
    believe the hearings are unlikely to result in changed confinement
    conditions.  The Ontario Superior Court denied bail on October 22nd
    to the first of the accused to appear before the court.
    Concurrently with the decision to move directly to trial, the Crown
    also filed modified charges under Canada's Anti-Terrorism Act
    against several of the defendants.  Consulate law enforcement
    sources believe the Crown moved to a direct indictment to counteract
    what they perceived as unnecessary delaying tactics by defense
    attorneys.  END SUMMARY.

    ¶2. (SBU) The Ontario Superior Court denied bail on October 22nd to
    Steven Chand, accused in the 2006 Ottawa and Toronto terrorism
    plots.  The bail hearing was the first in a series of proceedings
    that will take place over the coming weeks as Ontario courts revisit
    the confinement conditions of the suspected terrorists after Crown
    prosecutors took the unusual step of terminating preliminary
    hearings and moving all of the defendants directly to trial.  The
    defendants' bail conditions are not likely to be loosened prior to
    trial.  A publication gag order on all details surrounding the case
    remains in effect.

    ¶3. (SBU) Chand's new bail hearing was necessary after the September
    decision by Crown to terminate preliminary hearings (similar to U.S.
    grand jury proceedings) in the terror cases, and move directly to
    trial.  The procedure, known as "Preferred Direct Indictment," is
    rarely used.  The Crown's decision provoked furious protests from
    defense attorneys, as the decision eliminated their opportunity to
    "preview" the Crown's case, and more importantly, cross-examine
    crucial witnesses.  The move came as Mubin Shah, a once confidential
    RCMP informant whose credibility has come under attack, was about to
    testify.

    ¶4. (SBU) Concurrently with the decision to move directly to trial,
    the Crown also filed modified charges under Canada's Anti-Terrorism
    Act against several of the defendants as follows:  Jahmaal James
    with receiving terrorist training in Pakistan and knowingly
    participating in a terrorist group; Zakaria Amara with instructing a
    person to carry out an activity for the benefit of a terrorist
    group; and Saad Gaya with knowingly participating or contributing to
    the activity of a terrorist group.  The Crown dropped charges of
    providing property to aid and abet a terrorist organization against
    Yasin Mohamed and Ali Dirie, who were already serving two years in
    prison on weapons smuggling charges at the time of the other
    arrests.  Dirie and Mohamed remain behind bars on lesser charges
    related to the plots.

    ¶5. (SBU) The charges against three suspects, who were youths at the
    time of the arrest, were stayed by the Crown after the original
    charges were filed in 2006.  However, the Crown has reserved the
    right to "reactivate" the charges at a later date.  Two suspects,
    Ahmad Ghany and Ibrahim Alkhalel Aboud, have been living with their
    parents under strict conditions since being released on bail in July
    ¶2006.  The remaining adult suspects are being held in solitary
    confinement at Maplehurst Correctional Complex in Milton, Ontario.

    ¶6. (SBU) Consulate law enforcement sources believe the Crown moved
    to a direct indictment to counteract what they perceived as
    unnecessary delaying tactics by defense attorneys.  During the
    preliminary hearings, each defendant could individually challenge
    each piece of Crown evidence and separately cross-examine each Crown
    witness.  The time consumed by the motions of over a dozen defense
    attorneys eventually persuaded Crown prosecutors to move directly to
    trial.

    ¶7. (SBU) COMMENT:  Chand's bail hearing was a routine procedural
    step compared to the Crown's unusual decision (taken with no notice
    to the defense) of terminating preliminary hearings and moving
    forward with a direct indictment.  The new bail hearings are
    unlikely to result in changed confinement conditions for any of the
    suspects. At this point, it is unclear whether the direct indictment
    procedure was used to paper over gaps in the Crown prosecutors case,
    a procedure to counteract defense delaying tactics, or simply a
    reflection of the sensitivity and importance of the terrorism
    proceedings.  END COMMENT.

    NAY
