Police question July 7 bomber's widow
Police are continuing to question the widow of July 7 bomber Mohammed Sidique Khan, along with three men arrested in anti-terror raids on Wednesday.
Hasina Patel, 29, was arrested in West Yorkshire, along with her brother Arshad Patel, 30, and 34-year-old Khalid Khaliq. Imran Motala, 22, was also arrested in Birmingham.
All four are being held at the high-security Paddington Green police station in central on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.
Searches are continuing at addresses in Dewsbury, Batley, Beeston and Birmingham.
Suresh Grover, who knows Mrs Patel, told reporters that he was "shocked and outraged" at the arrests, saying that she had always co-operated with the police.
Fifty-two people were killed in the July 7 bombings, which took place on three Tube trains and a bus in London in 2005. The bombers, Khan, 30, Shehzad Tanweer, 22, Germaine Lindsay, 19, and Hasib Hussain, 18, also died in the attacks.
Last month, three men appeared in court charged in connection with the bombings - the first people to be charged in the investigation.
Mohammed Shakil, 30, Sadeer Saleem, 26 and Waheed Ali, 23, appeared at the Old Bailey via video link, charged with conspiracy to cause explosions.
They have been remanded in custody until June 8.
