Man who killed 4 members of Muslim family appealing convictions on 3 grounds: doc

Justice Renee Pomerance, left to right, Nathaniel Veltman, and Crown Prosecutor Kim Johnson are seen as the verdict is read in the Superior Court of Justice in Windsor, Ont., in a courtroom sketch made on Thursday, Nov. 16, 2023. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Alexandra Newbould A court document shows a man convicted of murdering four members of a Muslim family and seriously injuring another in what the judge deemed to be an act of terrorism is appealing his convictions on three grounds. A lawyer representing Nathaniel Veltman filed a new notice of appeal in February, nearly a year after Veltman filed an initial inmate notice of appeal. The document says Veltman is challenging his convictions and seeking a new trial on grounds that the trial judge erred in admitting the 'ideological evidence,' and in admitting his statements to police, which it says were obtained in breach of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. It also argues the trial judge, Superior Court Justice Renee Pomerance, erred in dismissing a defence application for mistrial. Veltman was sentenced in February 2024 to life in prison with no chance of parole for 25 years after he was convicted of four counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder for hitting the Afzaal family with his truck on June 6, 2021, while they were out for a walk in London, Ont. Forty-six-year-old Salman Afzaal; his 44-year-old wife, Madiha Salman; their 15-year-old daughter, Yumna; and her 74-year-old grandmother, Talat Afzaal were killed in the attack. The couple's nine-year-old son was seriously hurt but survived. Pomerance ruled the murders, committed by a self-described white nationalist, were an act of terrorism. The case was the first time Canada's terrorism laws were put before a jury in a first-degree murder trial. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 6, 2025 The Canadian Press

2 people seriously injured in Bluffer's Park stabbing, 2 suspects arrested

A Toronto police cruiser is seen in this undated photo. Two people have been seriously injured in a stabbing at Bluffer's Park in Scarborough, police say. Emergency crews received a call to the park just after 7:30 p.m. for reports of several people stabbed. Police say two people, who appear to be in their teens, were transported to the hospital with serious injuries. Meanwhile, officers have arrested two suspects. The circumstances that led to the stabbing are unknown. 'It is very early on in the investigation, and we do not have a motive at this time,' Toronto police media relations officer Const. Laurie McCann told CP24. Police say they have a large presence in the park as they investigate the incident.

Elements of ex-Olympian's drug network ‘remain in place' in Canada: RCMP

Photos released by the FBI show Ryan James Wedding who is wanted on a number of charges. (FBI) The RCMP say they believe Ryan Wedding, a former Canadian Olympian accused of orchestrating a billion-dollar international drug-trafficking organization, still has a presence in Canada. 'There certainly are elements of his network that remain in place,' RCMP Central Region Chief Supt. Chris Leather told reporters on Friday during an unrelated news conference, when asked about the former snowboarder turned alleged drug kingpin. 'I couldn't say much more than that at this time because of multiple ongoing investigations involving ourselves and our key policing partners, including Toronto police and the Ontario Provincial Police.' Police in Canada and the U.S. continue to search for Wedding, who is wanted on a number of charges in connection with their investigation into his alleged drug trafficking ring. The RCMP have said Wedding poses 'one of the largest organized crime threats to Canada, even as a fugitive.' In March, Wedding, who goes by the names 'Giant,' 'Public Enemy,' and 'El Jefe,' was added to the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigations' Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. There is a reward of US$10 million for anyone who can lead investigators to his arrest. At that time, officials said they believed the 2002 Winter Olympics athlete was still in Mexico under the protection of the Sinaloa drug cartel. Earlier this year, U.S. prosecutors alleged Wedding still had access to a 'network of hitmen' as they sought additional protections to keep the identities of confidential informants and cooperating witnesses in the case hidden. Wedding, along with his alleged 'second in command,' Canadian Andrew Clark, is also accused of directing four combined murders in Ontario in furtherance of their alleged drug empire. Their victims include an Indian couple who were shot and killed in Caledon in Nov. 2023, in what police said was a case of mistaken identity. With files from CTV News Toronto's Phil Tsekouras
