RCMP Arrest Edmonton Teen Allegedly Connected to Online Terrorism Network
- The RCMP arrested a 15-year-old Edmonton resident on May 12, 2025, charging them with a terrorism-related offence linked to the COM/764 network.
- The arrest followed concerns that the youth, part of the violent COM/764 online network, might commit terrorism offences, though no actual offence has occurred.
- COM/764 is a transnational network of violent predators that lure youth, especially vulnerable ones, encouraging acts like sexual abuse, self-harm, and animal torture.
- The RCMP emphasized that educating youth is crucial to help them identify harmful influences, counteract extremist ideas, and transform the internet into a positive environment for development rather than exploitation.
- The youth remains detained and is set to appear for a bail hearing on June 3, 2025, in Edmonton’s provincial court, with their identity protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
