Three Ontario men charged in an alleged terrorist plot will make another court appearance later this month, following a brief hearing on Wednesday.

Khurram Syed Sher, 28, of London, Ont., Hiva Mohammad Alizadeh, 30, and Misbahuddin Ahmed, 26, both of Ottawa, were arrested and charged last week in an alleged terrorist scheme that police say reaches from Canada to Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan.

Sher and Ahmed have been charged with conspiracy to facilitate terrorist activity.

Alizadeh has been charged with conspiracy, committing an act for terrorism purposes and providing or making available property for terrorism purposes.

On Wednesday, the three men appeared in an Ottawa courtroom through a video link. The trio has so far been denied bail.

Sher will get his next court date on Friday, while Ahmed will appear in court on Sept. 15. Meanwhile, Alizadeh will have his next appearance in court on Sept. 16.

All three men are Canadian citizens.

The men were arrested following a year-long investigation and police allege that 50 circuit boards seized were designed to remotely detonate bombs.

I think he was pushed to take matters into his own hands. I have a teenage son and if he was involved with a drug dealer I would be furious and try anything to save him like this father did for his daughter. Why do police often say they can't do anything until it's too late? Whether it be a drug dealer or an abusive spouse, the police can't seem to do anything until something really bad happens. In this case they could have raided the drug dealers home and arrested him. The whole town knew what was going on in that house but yet the police chose to do nothing. Release this man and give him a medal for doing the right thing by his daughter. I can't wait to see the episode on W5, I will certainly be watching this one.
