London attack: All 12 people arrested by police in wake of incident released without charge | London attack: All 12 people arrested by police in wake of incident released without charge |
(35 minutes later) | |
All 12 of the people arrested by officers investigating the London Bridge terror attack have been released without charge, Scotland Yard said. | |
Seven women and five men were arrested in Barking on Sunday following Saturday's atrocity which left seven dead and 48 injured. | |
A 55-year-old man and 53-year-old woman were released on Monday. The remaining 10 people - six women aged between 19 and 60 and four men between 27 and 55 - were released later in the day, meaning all 12 have now been released without charge. | |
The arrests were made after police raided properties in Barking on Sunday and two on Monday in Newham and Barking. | |
It comes as police identified two of the three attackers as Khuram Shazad Butt, a 27-year-old British citizen born in Pakistan, and Rachid Redouane, who claimed to be Moroccan-Libyan. | |
Butt was known to the security services, but there was no evidence of "attack planning" by him, according to Scotland Yard. | |
A third man has not yet been named by police. | |
All three were shot dead at the scene of the attack within eight minutes of the first 999 call. |
