Canada: Due to failure to protect a Muslim family, NCCM attacks Alberta police

In a recently published statement, the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) attacked the Canadian Alberta Police for failing to protect a mother and her children after they were attacked, as well as for failing to conduct a fair investigation,” according to the statement.

Last January, a Canadian Muslim mother with her children were attacked while driving her car past the Edmonton Islamic Center in Alberta. The assailant attacked their car and broke its glass. He also threatened the mother and her children and demanded them to leave Canada.

The NCCM stated that the police did not listen to the victim’s statements, and only registered a “weak” indictment, which is why the court decided that paying a fine would be an appropriate punishment. The assailant was fined only 5,000 Canadian dollars.

The council described what the police did as a “failure to achieve justice,” because what the assailant did should have him in prison, because of the material and psychological damage he inflicted on the woman and her children.
