The Insider: Daily Terrorism Report

Mar. 31 -- A Spanish judge issued international arrest warrants on Wednesday for five people in the Madrid train bombings, and re-arrested a released Moroccan suspect, a court official said today. Among the five whose arrest is sought is Abdelkrim Mejjati, a 36-year-old Moroccan who was convicted in absentia after deadly bombings in Casablanca last year and is no longer believed to be in Morocco, the Associated Press reports. Those bombings killed 33 people and 12 suicide bombers. Spanish Interior Minister Angel Acebes on Tuesday identified the Moroccan Islamic Combatant Group as the main focus of investigation in the March 11 bombings in Madrid, which killed 191 people and injured more than 1,800 others. Mejjati is wanted by the FBI in connection with possible terrorist threats against the United States.

And Canadian press reports that following a raid Tuesday on an Ottawa home, one of its residents was charged with two terrorism-related offences. Mohammad Momim Khawaja, 29, was arrested Monday at his workplace and charged with participating in or contributing to the activities of a terrorist group and facilitating terrorist activity, the RCMP said in a release. The charges fall under Canada's anti-terrorism law.
