Gardaí question man in London terror probe

Garda security services are consulting with London police on an Islamist terrorism investigation after the arrest of an Algerian man in Dublin in relation to fraudulent identification documents.

The Metropolitan Police Service sought the assistance of gardaí when, during an international terror investigation, they uncovered suspect documentation with the details of an individual purporting to live in Ireland.

The Garda Counter Terrorism International unit raided three properties at 7am yesterday — two on the southside of Dublin and one in Drumcondra, north Dublin, where they arrested a man.
