Somali man ruled too insane to stand trial for stabbing, yet granted permission to travel to Mecca to meet a potential bride

It's a tale as old as time. Man migrates to country. Man stabs army recruiters. Man declared too insane to stand trial for stabbing army recruiters. Man is granted permission to travel to Mecca to meet the bride his father had found for him. Oh, did I mention the man is Somali, and this takes place in Canada? Sorry. That detail is what turns this from a bad joke to an unironic one.
