Description: "03/10/2000: Montreal police arrested Ayman Bondok, 23, and Kim St. Louis, 31, for possessing illegal explosives. They were charged with threatening Israel in an effort to win the release of Lebanese prisoners. Police believed they were acting on their own, rather than in concert with any terrorist groups. On March 30, Bondok was charged with extortion and possessing explosives. St. Louis was charged with the latter offense, but was released on bail. Police believed Bondok had made a threatening call to the Israeli Consulate. They also suggested that Bondok had provided the tip about the explosives in the apartment of Tarek Adealy Khafagy, who was arrested on March 4."
