British police make 7th terror arrest

A 22-year-old woman was detained at a residential address in Hackney, east London, police have confirmed.

She was arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism under the Terrorism Act 2000, a spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said.

The arrest, by officers from the Met’s Counter Terrorism Command, follows six others made on Thursday.

On Thursday Richard Dart, 29, was reported as one of the six people arrested over the suspected terror plot.

Dart is believed to have been one of three people detained in Ealing, west London, and was arrested in the streets.

The others detained in Ealing were a 21-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman held at separate home addresses. Three men living just over a mile from the Olympic site in Stratford, east London, were also arrested.

The men, aged 18, 24 and 26, who are believed to be members of the same Bangladeshi family, were detained in a raid on their home.
