An extradition hearing has been scheduled for February for a Pakistani national arrested in Quebec for allegedly plotting to kill Jews in New York City on behalf of the Islamic State.
Muhammad Shahzeb Khan, 20, who has been jailed since his arrest on Sept. 4 in Ormstown, Que., is being sought by authorities in the United States to stand trial. U.S. officials have charged Khan with one count of attempting to provide material support and resources to a terrorist organization, and Canada has agreed to have him extradited.
