 LONDON: British police said they freed without charge on Friday two men arrested during a raid on a London house that police suspected of being used for making a chemical bomb. One of the men was shot during last week's raid by more than 250 officers, which Muslim groups have criticised as heavy handed. Police found no bomb in a search of the house in the ethnically mixed area of Forest Gate in east London. The men, aged 20 and 23 and reported to be brothers, were released on Friday evening. Police had a warrant allowing them to question them until Saturday. Lawyers for the men have said they deny any involvement in terrorism. "The intelligence received by police continues to be developed and the Metropolitan Police will continue to exhaust all lines of inquiry," a police statement said. |
