Aspiring Montreal police officer believes career blocked because of uncle she never knew
Ikhlef, who said she has no criminal record or criminal ties, said the only reason she can think of for the security clearance denial is the deportation of her uncle, Mourad Ikhlef, in 2003 because of alleged terrorist ties.This week she wrote to Montreal Mayor Valérie Plante and the city’s police chief asking for their help. She believes that police Chief Fady Dagher, who was sworn in this year, will understand what it’s like to be judged a risk because of an Arabic name and heritage.
“I believe he’s the right person to understand what kind of situation I’m going through because he admitted himself to being a victim of profiling at the border,” Ikhlef said. “I think he knows how it feels to be judged and treated as someone you’re not.” She said she attempted through an access to information request to learn more about why she failed her security clearance, but the request was denied on “national security” grounds.
