Detectives investigating alleged dissident republican meetings that were bugged by MI5 have arrested three more men.

A dissident republican plot to target judges and police officers in Northern Ireland has been exposed by a covert MI5 operation, a court has heard.

Seven men have been remanded in custody in the North charged with a series of dissident republican terrorist offences.

Seven men are due in court charged with what police in the North have described as “significant and serious terrorist offences”.
