Another Canadian connection to a European jihad nexus: Quebec man arrested in terrorist bomb plot.

TORONTO — A man arrested northeast of Montreal for allegedly planning a terrorist bombing outside Canada could face additional charges depending on the results of a search at his home, the RCMP said Thursday.

Said Namouh, 35, was to appear in court this morning to face charges of conspiring to detonate an explosive device. The arrest of the landed immigrant coincided with three related arrests in Vienna, Austria.

The Quebecer is suspected of having links to the Global Islamic Media Front, an al-Qaeda propaganda network. Terrorism researcher Rita Katz, who has been tracking the group, said other Canadians are involved. “The Global Islamic Media Front is individuals that are spread around the world, and there are several of them in Canada,” she said.

Police seized documents from Namouh’s home in Maskinonge, in the Mauricie region on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River, but the RCMP would not say whether the search had turned up any explosives, detonators or bomb components.
