Two men arrested in Britain over suspected links to Hezbollah
2025-04-04
[AnNahar] Two men have been arrested in Britain on suspicion of alleged links to Hezbollah, the BBC has reported.

“They were detained at separate addresses in London as part of an investigation by the Metropolitan Police's Counter Terrorism Command into activity both overseas and in the UK of Hezbollah, which is a proscribed organization under UK counter-terrorism legislation,” the BBC said.

A 39-year-old man was arrested at an address in north-west London on Tuesday on suspicion of being a member of Hezbollah, police said. A 35-year-old man was arrested at a separate address in west London on suspicion of the same offense.

The 39-year-old is also suspected of preparing for “acts of terrorism and involvement in a funding arrangement for the purposes of terrorism,” police said.

The two men were taken to a London police station and later released on bail until a date in mid-July, the force said.

It added that there was not believed to be any imminent threat to the public.
