British anti-terrorism raids: Two set free
Slightly EFLOnly one of the three men held in the latest round of police anti-terrorism raids remains in custody. The men were arrested in Manchester, Birmingham and Gloucester on Thursday, in three separate operations, on terror suspects. Only the suspect arrested in Gloucester, os [sic] still being questioned - with the other two released without charge. The 33-year-old man arrested during dawn raids by armed police on six addresses in Birmingham on Thursday was released this morning. That followed the release last night of the 39-year-old man arrested in Manchester, who had also been detained on suspicion of involvement in terrorist activities. However, detectives were granted a 48-hour extension to question 24-year-old Sajid Badat, arrested in Gloucester suspected of al Qaida links. Police were given until Monday morning to either charge him, release him or apply for a further 36-hour extension. Posted by: Bulldog 2003-11-29 |
