Aly Hindy

[citation needed] While acting as the director of the Canadian Islamic Congress in Toronto,[4] Hindy was arrested by Egyptian security forces in February 2003 and held for two days before being released.

[5] Upon his return from Canada in November 2003, he was questioned for three hours at the Cairo Airport and twice brought to the State Security bureau for interviews.

[5] In 2004, Hindy celebrated the 135th birthday of Mahatma Gandhi by organising a group of 100 local Muslims to videotape the CN Tower as part of a non-violent protest against detention of Kassim Mohamed, who had been arrested after taking footage of the tourist attraction on his video camera.

[8][9][10] He claims to have cooperated with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in the past, helping them and answering questions about potential militants in Canada.

[11] However, in December 2009, Federal Court judge Mosley concluded that Almrei has nothing to do with terrorism and found that security certificate is not reasonable and must be quashed.
