Police raided a Watford home after a man was arrested on suspicion of terrorism offences.

The 40-year-old man was initially stopped by officers on Wednesday after he arrived in the UK at Luton on a flight from Kosovo.

He was subsequently arrested on suspicion of collecting information likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism and taken to a local Bedfordshire police station, the Metropolitan Police said.

He has since been released on bail to a date in early July.

Police said the arrest is Islamist-related.

As part of the Met’s Counter Terrorism Command’s investigation, officers carried out a search at a residential address in Watford.

The force said searches are complete and enquiries continue.
