A man arrested on Thursday as part of a counter-terrorism operation to thwart an alleged Islamist plot had previously been suspected of wanting to travel to Syria to team up with extremists, friends of his family said on Friday.
Counter-terrorism officers announced on Friday that they had arrested four men over an alleged terrorist plot, and were carrying out a series of raids in and around London. One theory officials are exploring was a that there was a plot to attack a forthcoming public event.
One possible target is the Remembrance Sunday ceremony in Whitehall, which is due to be attended by the prime minister and party leaders as well as other dignitaries.
