MONTREAL — A federal prosecutor says she'll seek an adult sentence for a Quebec teenager facing two terrorism-related charges.
The motion to have the boy sentenced as an adult could mean he'll face a harsher sentence if found guilty compared to the maximum sentence applicable under the Youth Criminal Justice Act.
The teen is accused of committing a robbery for the benefit of an unspecified terrorist organization.
Authorities also say the adolescent is charged with planning to leave Canada to participate in the activities of a terrorist group abroad.
The 15-year-old's lawyer appeared today in youth court for what was supposed to be a meeting to set a date for his trial.
Instead, the case was postponed until March 9.
