Eight of these files were downloaded immediately. On Aug. 2, 2010, the undercover officer viewed eight files obtained directly from the computer and confirmed seven files to be child pornography as defined by the Criminal Code. Ahmed pleaded guilty last summer. Ahmed, a student at Niagara College, volunteered with ISNA at its headquarters on South Sheridan Way and received a letter of support from staff that was filed in court. The judge said that a sentence of 90 days of imprisonment to be served intermittently "is the most appropriate and fit sentence, not only for the offender but also for society, because it will allow him to continue to pursue his counselling... and also to remain in his college education program, thus contributing to his self-esteem and eventual positive contribution to society." Forsyth added, "It is to be noted that 90 days is 6 1/2 times the length of the minimum sentence of 14 days for this offence, which in my view adequately addresses the principles of denunciation and general deterrence that are paramount in a sentencing for possession of child pornography."
