UNITED KINGDOM — Five UK nationals arrested near Royal Air Force Fairford remained on police bail on September 29, still under investigation and still uncharged.
Assistant Commissioner Laurence Taylor, head of National Counter Terrorism Policing, announced that release on the afternoon of September 28 and said they were subject to stringent conditions on movement and contact with others.
The Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in London stated on September 28 that it “categorically rejects and strongly condemns” speculation linking Iran to the arrests.
