In a new interview, one of the men accused of plotting to bomb a VIA passenger train between Toronto and New York does not proclaim his innocence.
Chiheb Esseghaier told the CBC that he prefers to pass all his life in jail rather than be judged by laws made by humans.
He used the 40-minute interview to sharply criticize the Canadian government for its military involvement in Afghanistan, calling it a wrong form of “colonization.”
He’s been unsuccessful in finding a Muslim lawyer and told the CBC he’ll be acting in his own defence at his near court appearance, set for Tuesday.
