一名魁北克城男子因涉嫌在社交媒体上威胁总理马克·卡尼而被捕。
A Quebec City man has been arrested after he allegedly threatened Prime Minister Mark Carney on social media.
加拿大皇家骑警周五在新闻稿中表示,45岁的魁北克城居民乌斯曼·巴(Ousmane Bah)已被指控发表威胁言论,意图造成他人死亡或身体伤害,包括针对总理。他还被指控煽动对可识别群体的仇恨。皇家骑警称,他使用其Facebook账户发表了上述言论。
The RCMP said in a media release on Friday that Ousmane Bah, 45, from Quebec City, has been charged with uttering threats to cause death or bodily harm to a person, including the prime minister. He has also been charged with promoting hatred against an identifiable group. The RCMP say he made the remarks using his Facebook account.
该机构表示,调查始于7月6日。巴于9月24日在魁北克城出庭,并将在至少10月1日的下次出庭前继续被羁押。
The force says their investigation began in the summer, on July 6. Bah appeared in court in Quebec City on Sept. 24, and will remain in custody at least until his next court appearance, on Oct. 1.
本月早些时候,阿尔伯塔省的皇家骑警逮捕了一名卡尔加里居民,指控其同样威胁要杀害卡尼。
Earlier this month, RCMP officers in Alberta arrested a Calgary resident and accused him of threatening to kill Carney as well.
