UK rearrests duo on suspicion of aiding Iran in alleged plot at US-run airbase
The 24-year-old British national and a 25-year-old dual UK-Iranian national were arrested under the National Security Act
British police said on Tuesday that they had rearrested two men on suspicion of assisting Iran’s intelligence service over the suspected plot at a US-run airbase in England last month.
Counter Terrorism Policing said the men, a 24-year-old British national and a 25-year-old dual UK-Iranian national, were arrested under the National Security Act.
The men were earlier arrested but had been bailed pending more investigation.
Police are investigating a suspected terror plot on September 27 against the US-run base at RAF Fairford in western England, which has been used to bomb Iran during this year’s war.
