UK police arrest London attack suspect

British police have arrested a suspect in connection with the failed attacks on London's transport network on 21 July.

The 36-year-old was arrested on Tuesday by officers from the Metropoliton Police force's Anti-Terrorist Branch on suspicion of assisting an offender and alleged immigration offences, a spokesman said.

"The man has been taken to a central London police station where he remains in custody and will be interviewed," he said, adding that he was being held under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act.
