Canada Arrests 19 in Case with Sept 11 Parallels 37 minutes ago Add Top Stories - Reuters to My Yahoo!
TORONTO (Reuters) - Canadian police arrested 19 men last week in a case that, according to court documents obtained by a newspaper, has eerie parallels to the preparations for the Sept. 11 attacks on the United States.
Royal Canadian Mounted Police spokeswoman Michele Paradis on Friday confirmed the arrests but declined to offer details.
"We arrested 19 people last Thursday," Paradis said, adding the operation had involved four police departments from across the Greater Toronto area.
"They're all related and it's all part of, what we're alleging, has to do with a group taking advantage of a system -- the immigration system here in Canada."
The Toronto Star newspaper said the men were arrested after a "pattern of suspicious behavior" which featured one man taking flight lessons that took him directly over an Ontario nuclear power plant.
In court documents obtained by the newspaper, the student pilot was described as "unmotivated" and he raised suspicion because he has trained for nearly three years to obtain a commercial pilots license that normally takes only a year.
"He often brings with him an unknown male as a passenger," the document read.
The alleged incidents evoke chilling memories of the Sept. 11 attacks, where the suicide hijackers who flew commercial planes into New York's World Trade Center and the Pentagon (news - web sites) in Washington took lessons at U.S. flight schools.
The newspaper said two other men were considered suspicious after police found them in April 2002 outside the same nuclear plant, which sits near the shores of Lake Ontario.
"They requested that they be allowed to enter the perimeter in order to go for a walk on the beach," the document said.
Police said the detained men, who are from Pakistan, tended to "reside in clusters of 4 or 5" and changed addresses as a group, according to the newspaper.
Paradis said the investigation, called Project Thread, began last February. She referred questions to Citizenship and Immigration Canada, which did not immediately return calls seeking more information.
"Unmotivated" meaning that maybe he was a little conflicted and didn't want to hurry-up-and-die.
I think there was maybe a bit of that in all the 9/11 hijackers, and Mousaoui as well -- i.e., the 9/11 guys did a lot to bring attention to themselves, but the various US authorities always seemed to look the other way.
