UK Counter Terror Police make another arrest over RAF Fairford incident

# UK Counter Terror Police have arrested a 22-year-old British man on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts over the RAF Fairford plot last month. Five men were arrested on 27 September near the base on suspicion of explosives offences and preparing a terrorist act, but were subsequently released on bail. A sixth man, a dual Iranian-British national, was arrested last week and was also released on bail. Counter Terrorism Police say this remains a live investigation and they remain committed to probing all possible angles.
