His father’s history offers a hint of what Mr. Bathurst was concerned about. In 2011, a Montrealer named “Belgasem Zahef” was quoted in a Washington Times dispatch from the front in Libya, where he had travelled to join the rebel fight. The man described being detained at the Zawiyah oil terminal, where he witnessed torture.
In yet another unusual twist, the terrorist’s mother Susan Bibeau is the deputy chairperson of a division of Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Board and lives in Montreal. Bulgasem Zehaf divorced his wife in 1999.
