In a notice of motion to the Ontario Superior Court of Justice in May, lawyers for the force said “the officers fear for their safety and mental wellness, and for that of their family members.”

Choudry’s family members say the move for a publication ban reeks of irony. “Despite ignoring my father’s safety and well-being in the midst of a mental health crisis, these officers have asked the courts to respect and prioritize theirs,” said Choudry’s daughter, Nemrah Ahmad.

That’s about all that needs to be said.
