On Saturday, April 1, 2023, Muslim Abdul Aziz Kawam used a knife to slash the throat of a passenger riding a bus in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. The victim fought back and managed to throw the suspect out of the back doors of the bus. Unfortunately, the victim has been left with life-threatening injuries.
The 28-year-old Muslim was arrested by the police and initially charged with attempted murder, but prosecutors added four counts of terrorism on Monday. He was charged with acting “for the benefit of, at the direction of, or in association with a terrorist group, to wit: the Islamic State [ISIS].” The addition of the terrorism charges means he could face a life sentence.
The court documents show that Kawam is also accused of assault in a separate case for allegedly attacking another person that same day with a knife at a bus stop.
