'Terror' raid men freed

TWO men arrested in Rotherham in connection with suspected terrorism have been released without being charged with terror offences.

The men, aged 34 and 37, from Swallownest, were arrested by officers from West Yorkshire Police's Counter Terrorism Unit after they were called in by South Yorkshire officers investigating a burglary in Aston.

A police spokeswoman said: "Two men aged 34 and 37 from Rotherham were released in connection with terrorism offences.

"Both men have subsequently been charged in connection with other criminal offences not related to terrorism.

"The two house searches were concluded by the Counter Terrorism Unit, Leeds, last Friday and South Yorkshire Police has subsequently released both properties back to their owners."

Officers searched the Aston property which led them to another house in Alexandra Road, Swallownest.
