One of the men facing charges in the slaying of Anthony Smith ? a murder that may be linked to a video allegedly showing Mayor Rob Ford smoking crack ? is getting bail.
Hanad Mohamed, the man accused of driving Smith?s killer away from the King St. W. shooting in March, will be released on consent at Old City Hall Wednesday with his father posting $10,000 bail and his uncle $5,000.
Last week the Crown dropped first-degree murder charges against Mohamed, 23. He now faces charges of accessory after the fact to manslaughter, accessory to discharging a firearm and accessory to aggravated assault in connection to the shooting of Muhammad Khattak that night.
Both Smith and Khattak, allegedly members of the Dixon City Bloods, posed with Mayor Rob Ford in the infamous photo linked to the sale of an alleged crack video.
A third man in the photo, Monir Kasim, also an alleged Dixon City Blood, was freed Tuesday on $3,000 bail.
Under Mohamed?s bail conditions, the former Alberta security guard must live with either his father or uncle, remain at home between 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. and not contact Khattak or Nasir Hashimi, the man convicted in June of shooting Smith. In a surprising plea deal, the Crown dropped his first-degree murder charge and Hashimi pleaded guilty to manslaughter and was sentenced to nine years for killing Smith, 19, outside the Loki Lounge early on March 28.
Mohamed?s lawyer Fariborz Davoudi said his client is very happy to be released after two months in custody and will defend himself ?vigorously? against Crown allegations that he was Hashimi?s getaway driver.
As to whether the shooting was linked to getting hold of a video that allegedly showed Ford smoking crack, the lawyer laughed. ?Rob Ford?s name hasn?t come up,? he said.
Mohamed?s father insisted his son has never even met Ford. ?Even in his dreams, he?s never seen the mayor. How can someone working in a security office in Alberta?? asked Abdulkadir Mohamed.
