Police in Quebec have arrested 45 people and seized more than 12,000 counterfeit bank cards in raids on an international fraud ring that cloned cards and pilfered cash from victims’ accounts.

“We believe that we’ve put an end to a significant operation that was in operation here in the province,” said Supt. Guy Pilon of the RCMP.

“Internationally, it is a reality that is obviously evident in all countries today. The advent of the technology creates opportunity for the public, but also for criminal organizations that want to defraud individuals.”

The network was based in Montreal, but worked with accomplices in Vancouver, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Tunisia and the United Kingdom.

The retrial of a Calgary mother accused of strangling her teenage daughter will be delayed for at least seven months for health reasons.

Aset Magomadova initially faced a murder charge in the death of her 14-year-old daughter, Aminat, in 2007. During the trial, she testified that she acted in self-defence when her daughter came at her with a knife.

She was convicted of manslaughter and got a suspended sentence, but last year, the Alberta Court of Appeal ordered a new trial on the charge of second-degree murder.

Toronto police have arrested a 28-year-old man accused of stabbing his roommate and landlord in a rooming house near Finch Ave. W. and Humber College Blvd.

Police said the incident happened at about 10 a.m. on Monday when the accused allegedly went into his bedroom and stabbed his 44-year-old roommate in the face and stomach with a broken beer bottle.

He then allegedly broke into his landlord’s room in the house, stabbed the 62-year-old landlord near the head and then hit him on the head with a brick.

The victims managed to flee the home and call police. They were taken to hospital with injuries that are not life-threatening.

The accused, Ahmed Abdurahaman Ahmed, was found a short distance from the home and charged with break and enter, two counts of aggravated assault and assault with a weapon, possession of dangerous weapons and threatening death.

Islamic school apologizes for anti-Semitic material on website

A Toronto Islamic school that is under police investigation after anti-Semitic teachings were found on its website is apologizing “unreservedly” for its curriculum material, which is now being reviewed.

The Toronto District School Board is also reviewing a complaint that the East End Madrassah was teaching children that “treacherous” Jews “conspired to kill” the Islamic prophet Mohammed. It also contrasted Islam with “the Jews and the Nazis.”

The complaint came from the Friends of the Simon Wiesenthal Centre, which found the material on the school’s website.

The East End Madrassah, a Sunday school run that rents space in a Scarborough school, is run by a Thornhill, Ont., mosque. It has since taken the material off the website, but copies are still available online.

TORONTO — A verdict is expected today in the case of two men charged in the beating death of a Canadian man who was on vacation in the Dominican Republic.

Jordan Morrison, a 19-year-old resident of Barrie, Ont., was killed outside a resort nightclub in Punta Cana on Feb. 4, 2011.

Witnesses have said Morrison was attacked after he had come to the aid of a woman in a bar who was spit on.

Canadian citizen Dmytro Aref Yev and Algerian national Bouzid Redha, who were both 21 at the time, could face up to 20 years in jail if found guilty of homicide.

Their lawyer has said the men were drunk at the time of the fight and did not intend to kill Morrison and that the death was an accident.

Three other Canadian tourists were initially held in connection with the attack, but were released on bail after a judge decided they had no direct role in the fight.
