Three still questioned after major security operation

Three people with suspected links to the Real IRA terrorist group were still being questioned today by detectives in Derry, Northern Ireland.

The three, two men and a woman, were held yesterday after what police called a major security operation close to the border with the Republic.

The arrests were made after police stopped a car on the outskirts of Derry. Two handguns were found in the vehicle.

Later another man was picked up for questioning in Strabane, Co Tyrone, after a number of searches in that area.
