Four held in terrorism operation

The four are being held at Govan police station

Four people have been arrested under terrorism legislation during a police operation in Renfrewshire.

Few details have been released by Strathclyde Police beyond confirmation of the operation, which took place last Thursday evening.

Three adult males and a female were arrested under the Terrorism Act 2000 and are presently being held at a police station in Glasgow.

The investigation is linked to "matters of affairs in Northern Ireland".

A police statement said it was "in no way linked to the terrorist incidents which took place in London during the summer".

The four people are being held in Govan, which is designated as the station where people held under the terrorism legislation are detained.
