Alleged gang member in Rob Ford photo freed on bail

TORONTO - An alleged member of the Dixon City Bloods gang ? who was once photographed with Mayor Rob Ford along with shooting victims Anthony Smith and Muhammad Khattak ? was freed Tuesday on $3,000 bail.

Monir Kasim, 20, said nothing as he walked briskly out of the 2201 Finch Ave. W. courthouse, refusing to answer any queries from reporters.

Kasim?s mother, Fathiya Abasheikh, who celebrated her son?s release by pumping her fist in the courtroom, said she has never asked her son about the controversial photo with the mayor.

?Rob Ford has done so much for our community. I?ll be voting for him and so will everybody on Dixon,? said Abasheikh, who is fluent in five languages, including Somalian, Arabic, English and Swahili.

?Politicians pose in photos with regular people all the time.?


Toronto Mayor Rob Ford is seen posing with Anthony Smith, left, who was gunned down outside a King St. W. club, in a photo released by Gawker.com. One of the other men in the photo is believed to have been injured in the Smith shooting.

According to his bail conditions, Kasim will live under house arrest at the Mississauga home of his truck-driver father, Mohamed. Kasim is prohibited from associating with any of his co-accused in the massive Project Traveller investigation.
