Default Four people arrested over 'Terrorism' at UK airport...

Four people have been arrested at Manchester airport on suspicion of terrorism after being deported from Turkey.

The arrests are part of an investigation into nine family members, including four children, who were detained by the Turkish authorities for allegedly trying to illegally enter Syria.

The first of the group, Waheed Ahmed, was detained in Birmingham on Tuesday following his deportation from Turkey.

Mr Ahmed, 21, is the son of Rochdale councillor Shakil Ahmed.

Those arrested at Manchester airport all live in Rochdale and are aged between 22 and 47.

Officers are trying to establish their reason for travel and apparent attempted entry into Syria.

Another man, aged 31, was also detained in Rochdale on Tuesday.

All the arrests have been made under the Terrorism Act.

The nine family members, including two women aged 47 and 22, three men aged 24, 22 and 21, and four children aged one, three, eight and 11, were stopped close to the Syrian border on 1 April.

The four children are currently wards of court.

After the group were detained in Turkey, Greater Manchester Police said they had uncovered "no evidence whatsoever" of any imminent threat to Rochdale or the UK.

In a statement today, police said: "Officers continue to work closely with Rochdale Borough Council, local partners, and faith leaders as part of the 'Prevent' initiative."

Yes his Dad
(of the Labour Councillor)
said he was going on Holiday.

Kids into a Warzone Holiday?

What I like about this man (Ahmed, 21, )
is he keeps smilling

So you decide to take your family for a holiday in Turkey....no crime in that but then trying to take therm into a War zone in Syria well then it becomes a bit suspicious.

Do they have relatives there or can they provide a sensible reason for exposing themselves to the dangers of travelling into a War zone.

I think the authorities are going to have to investigate this family from top to toe and see if there is a case to answer.

Maybe we should not jump to conclusions however suspicious their actions might appear.
