A group tied to the Islamic State plotted a fatal shooting at a Mississauga restaurant in May 2021, according to the Crown. The suspects allegedly pledged allegiance to ISIS and targeted 25-year-old Naim Akl after he discovered their loyalties and intended to report them to authorities. The shooting, which occurred at Chicken Land restaurant, was motivated by Akl's alleged betrayal of ISIS supporters. The Crown presented this information in court, highlighting the victim's role in uncovering the group's activities. The suspects were part of a Toronto-area ISIS fundraising network.
