A Calgary man facing four terrorism charges, accused of fighting with ISIS for more than a year before returning to Canada, has been released on bail. Between May 2013 and June 2014, Borhot travelled to Syria, where he joined ISIS and received training from the terrorist group, police say. Provincial court Judge Anne Brown released Borhot on a number of strict conditions including that he wear an ankle tracking device that his family will pay for. The terrorist group is known for graphic videos documenting beheadings of journalists and aid workers. The United Nations has accused ISIS of crimes against humanity for carrying out mass executions, abducting women and girls to use as sex slaves and using child soldiers.
