An alleged ISIL supporter has been arrested in Ottawa for the second time in less than two weeks for violating the conditions of his release, raising new questions about terrorism peace bonds.

Police picked up Tevis Gonyou-McLean, 24, on Saturday morning — just five days after a judge had freed him from custody following his arrest for multiple previous breaches of his release conditions.

“He was arrested, I believe, yesterday morning on breaches,” his lawyer Biagio Del Greco said in an interview Sunday. He said there were two alleged breaches this time, one of them for a curfew violation.

The court said on Monday that Gonyou-McLean was charged with mischief under $5,000, three counts of failing to comply with a bail condition and uttering threats.

The 24-year-old was required to observe a 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew and wear an electronic GPS ankle bracelet. He appeared in court over the weekend and the matter was adjourned to Tuesday.
