Mohammad Al-Sahli, 33, was also granted bail. (FBI) Two Canadian men accused by the FBI of conspiring to commit federal crimes in the U.S. were granted bail on Friday in Windsor, Ont., but with a number of conditions.
Mohammad Al-Sahli, 33, must post $300,000 bond and stay within Essex, Middlesex, Chatham-Kent and Elgin counties.
Yasir Ali Khan, 30, must post bond of $260,000 and remain within Essex County at all times.
Both men must also remain at home nightly from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., surrender their passports to the RCMP and report to the RCMP every Friday. Neither man can be within 250 metres of an airport at any time.
Al-Sahli and Khan have been held in custody since their arrest in Windsor on Oct. 30.
They were the last of 11 men sought in an FBI complaint that listed several charges, including conspiracy to sell stolen goods.
They were also allegedly involved in a radical Islamic group whose leader, Luqman Ameen Abdullah, 53, was fatally shot by FBI agents during a raid on his mosque in Dearborn, Mich., on Oct. 28.
About 100 members of Windsor's Muslim community attended Friday morning's bail hearing at the Superior Court of Justice, filling the courtroom.
