Two people have been arrested at Heathrow Airport on suspicion of committing terrorism offences.
A man and a woman, both aged 26, were arrested last night after their flight landed at the airport, reports the BBC.
Scotland Yard said the man and woman had arrived at Heathrow on a flight from Egypt. Their nationality has not been disclosed.
The arrests are part of an investigation into travel to Syria in support of alleged terrorist activity.
Officers from the Metropolitan Police’s Counter-Terrorism Command took the two people to a central London police station where they remain in custody.
Two addresses in east London are being searched under the Terrorism Act in connection with police inquiries, the Met said.
