The RCMP was aware of that case. In fact, I brought a copy of today's online Globe and Mail article with me.
With respect to actual matters that relate to the investigation, I would not say more than what the RCMP spokesman in the article said, which I could quote for you:
...would confirm only that the police force’s Ottawa-based A-division, which handles international corruption investigations, had “received a request for assistance” in the case of Mr. Ben Aissa.
