An 18-year-old Yorkton resident has been charged with terrorism related offences. The RCMP Federal Policing Northwest Region’s Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET) in Alberta began an investigation into a Telegram user after receiving a report of concerning online activity.

Investigators says the user allegedly posted a series of videos depicting real-world activity as a 764 member. Investigators found the user was also referenced in numerous 764-related chatrooms on Discord and Telegram.

In a news release INSET said the entity 764 became listed as terrorist in December 2025, that it is transnational and “is populated by violent online predators who coerce youth to participate in acts involving child sexual abuse and exploitation, self-harm, and the torture of animals.”

The police agency says elements of the 764 network are known to have extreme ideological views and are victimizing children through desensitizing and radicalizing them to violence.

The 18-year-old was arrested and charged with participation in activity of terrorist group, facilitating terrorist activity, and two counts of commission of offence for terrorist group. The individual was remanded into custody and is scheduled to appear at the Yorkton Provincial Court today (Tues).

As the offences were committed while the individual was a youth, under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, no further details will be released about the accused.

INSET would like to thank the Saskatchewan RCMP and the RCMPs National Child Exploitation Crime Centre for their support in this investigation.
