The Royal Canadian Mounted Police has said a 29-year-old woman is facing a terrorism-related offence for her alleged participation in terror group Islamic State's activities.

"On April 4, 2023, Ammara Amjad returned to Canada from Syria, and was arrested by way of a Terrorism Peace Bond. She was later released on bail conditions pending a future court appearance," read a statement issued by RCMP.

"On October 5, the GTA/Southwest INSET arrested Ms. Amjad in Milton, ON, for her alleged participation in the activities of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant," the statement said.

Police said she was charged with participating in the activity of Terrorist Group contrary to Section 83.18 of the Criminal Code.

Amjad appeared at William Davis Courthouse in Brampton before the Ontario Provincial Court for a bail hearing in relation to the charge.

She was released from custody by the Courts and is subject to a number of bail conditions.

Her next court date is scheduled for November 17.
