Halt Muslim immigration to the West:
A devout Muslim who has denounced Canadian law and said he wants to be judged by the Qur’an, Esseghaier also said he believed Islam allows for killing when there is a justification.
“If there is a right to kill, you kill,” he said.
Esseghaier is one of two men charged with several terrorism offences in connection to an alleged plot to derail a New York-Toronto passenger train.
The former Université de Sherbrooke PhD student, who came from his native Tunisia in 2008, was arrested in a Montreal McDonald’s on April 22.
