Three pro-Palestinian activists accused of criminally harassing federal Immigrat

Three pro-Palestinian activists accused of criminally harassing federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller last September  had their charges dropped last week. 

MONTREAL  - Charges against three pro-Palestinian activists accused of criminally harassing federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller have been  dropped.
The activists' lawyer, Barbara Bedont, said today  that the charges were  dropped on Nov.  26. 29 after the three  defendants released a video  contradicting the allegations against  them.
Mohanned Mansour, Samar Elkahlout and Wendy Ing  have been charged with criminal harassment and  malicious damage for allegedly damaging  Miller's car outside a Liberal  by-election office in  Montreal in September.
Elkahlout, also known as Samar Alkhdour,  regularly holds protests outside Miller's Montreal office to protest the death of  his 13-year-old daughter, who died in the Gaza Strip  while waiting for permission to come to  Canada.
Bedont said in an interview that  his clients deserve an apology from Miller and that the minister should meet with  them.
A spokesperson  said Miller  would not comment on the  matter, adding that the minister's Montreal office will remain closed until the safety of his staff  is assured. This report  from The Canadian Press was first published  on December 2, 2024.
