Twelve people have been arrested as part of an investigation into an extreme right-wing terror threat against an Islamic event in Suffolk, according to Counter Terrorism Policing London.
Event Details and Police Response
The event was held at Shrubland Hall in Suffolk over the weekend of July 9-12. Organisers were advised to close earlier than planned on Sunday due to concerns over the possible threat. Police have confirmed there is not believed to be any wider threat to the public connected to the incident.
Counter Terrorism Policing London is leading the investigation. The arrests were made in connection with the alleged plot, and authorities are continuing their inquiries.
Background and Impact
Shrubland Hall, a historic country house, was hosting the Islamic event when the threat emerged. The early closure disrupted the scheduled programme, but attendees were safely evacuated. No injuries have been reported.
This is a developing story. Further updates are expected as the investigation progresses.
