Chouay, 27, is charged with leaving Canada to participate in the activity of a terrorist group, participating in the activity of a terrorist group, providing property or services for terrorism purposes and conspiracy to participate in the activity of a terrorist group.
The RCMP arrested her in October at Montreal’s international airport after she arrived from a camp for ISIS detainees in Syria with her two children and another adult.
Chouay was released on condition she wear a GPS tracking bracelet, refrain from using any form of social media and report to police once a month. A family member must also put up $5,000 to ensure her presence in court.
The RCMP says Chouay had been the subject of an investigation since November 2014 by the force’s national security enforcement team.
