UK terror plot: Cops raid cafes, recover arms

Press Trust of India

London, August 15, 2006

Continuing their probe into the conspiracy to blow up US-bound flights,
British police raided two internet cafes in London and reportedly found
firearms near an area where some suspects were arrested. 
Police on Tuesday said they had raided two internet cafes on Thursday in
central Slough, not far from the High Wycombe area where several suspects
were arrested last week.
A search of the homes of some suspects and of Woodland area in High Wycombe
turned up several firearms and other items, BBC news said.
Three people of Indian origin, tracing their roots to Gujarat, were among
the 24 people arrested last Thursday in connection with the foiled plot.
Besides Abdul Patel, the 17-year-old son of a Gujarati migrant, police held
Patel's wife Sophia, 24, and her father, sources said.
Passengers at Britain's airports were allowed to carry single,
briefcase-size bags and permitted to have mobile phones, laptops and other
electronic devices a day after the government dropped its terror threat
level from 'critical' to 'severe'.
Officials were also considering a system of passenger profiling that would
select people behaving suspiciously, who had an unusual travel pattern or
were of a certain religious background. This was criticised by leaders of
the Muslim community who said it would further isolate British Muslims.
Reports said up to 50 people across the world may have been part of the plot
to explode bombs on planes heading from Britain to the US, an official
document has said, even as some prisoners in Pakistan were questioned in
connection with the conspiracy.
