United Kingdom: British Officials Arrest Six Men After Ricin Discovery British officials arrested six men Sunday in connection with the discovery of the toxic poison ricin in London (see GSN, Oct. 16). Police also detained and then released a woman Sunday, but officers from the Metropolitan Police Anti-Terrorist Branch are questioning the men, who are of North African origin. Officials are conducting a forensic analysis of an address in north London, where one of the men was arrested. Police said that “equipment and materials” were found at that location. “We have previously said that London and indeed the rest of the U.K. continues to face a range of terrorist threats from a number of different groups,” a police statement said (Associated Press/Yahoo.com, Jan. 7).
