A Toronto judge acquitted a Muslim man, Ahmed Beig, of strangling a 7-year-old girl while shouting 'Allah' in August 2023. Beig was found not guilty due to automatism caused by smoking an unfamiliar strain of marijuana, which induced a 'psychotic' state. He had left his house naked, wrapped in a towel, before attacking the girl. Psychiatrists testified that Beig's actions were not conscious or related to mental illness.
