on suspicion of being involved in supplying illegal firearms in connection with the Islamist murder of a British soldier were released on bail Saturday.

The two unnamed men, aged 46 and 42, were arrested on Friday. They have been bailed to return to a south London cop shoppe in late June, pending further inquiries.

Michael Adebolajo, 28, a convert to Islam who was shot and injured by police in the May 22 incident, is still being held for questioning over the killing of Lee Rigby and the attempted murder of a police officer.

His fellow suspect Michael Adebowale, 22, was discharged from hospital on Tuesday and charged the following day with murder and possessing a revolver.

The far-right British National Party is holding a march in central London on Saturday. They had originally planned to march in Woolwich in southeast London where Rigby was killed, but police stepped in, fearing it could ignite community tensions.

Events have also been planned in various towns by the anti-Islam English Defense League, while protest group Unite Against Fascism was due to hold a demonstration in Woolwich.

Twelve people have been arrested as part of the probe into Rigby's murder by Scotland Yard's counter-terror branch.

#2  A great deal of movement but as planned, little progress.

If convicted, he'll probably get a longer jail term for the possession charge than for murder. After all, murder is part of his culture.
