The other terror arrest
July 05, 2012  16:55

The other terror alert happened early this morning, when the British police today arrested five men and a woman in London as part of a pre-planned intelligence-led operation.

 

The Metropolitan Police clarified that the operation was not linked to the forthcoming Olympic Games. The men and woman were all arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism under the Terrorism Act 2000, and have been taken to a southeast London police station where they remain in custody.

 

The police have yet to confirm whether the incident on the bus on M6 Toll Road is a terror plot. Remember, there are just 22 days for the London Olympics to begin and the country is on a high alert.
