Smart Video foe Hamouth says he is being watched

2006-01-20 15:01 ET - Street Wire

by Stockwatch Business Reporter

Smart Video Technologies Inc.'s court opponent, West Vancouver promoter Rene Hamouth, is in court again. He is not suing Smart Video, or any other company, however. This time Mr. Hamouth is suing the Canadian government and the Municipality of West Vancouver for invasion of privacy.

Mr. Hamouth claims West Vancouver police have tapped his phone, bugged his house and followed him around town. He says the government is "illegally investigating" him and is eavesdropping on him at every chance.

He also says CSIS, the Canadian spy agency, has been spying on him since 2004.

The suit names the Attorney General of Canada, the Municipality of West Vancouver and West Vancouver chief of police Grant Churchill as defendants. The suit also names six John Does, all members of the RCMP and the West Vancouver Police.

Nobody will say why investigators could have bugged Mr. Hamouth's house. Not his lawyer, not the police and not the government.
