Two men who were arrested over the arson attack on Jewish charity-owned ambulances in north London have been released on bail, the Metropolitan Police has said.
And are they as we suspected?
The men, British nationals aged 47 and 45, were arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of arson with intent to endanger life and have now been bailed until April.
Well, that hides a multitude of possibilities these days, doesn’t it?
Cdr Helen Flanagan, head of Counter Terrorism Policing London, said there were "strict bail conditions in place while we continue to investigate their suspected involvement in this incident".
"We continue to work to try and identify all of those involved in this appalling attack and the investigation team is working around the clock to do this," she said.
Oh, so it’s being investigated as terrorism?
Although the case is not being classed as a terror incident, the Met said the investigation is currently being led by counter-terror officers. The Met previously said the investigation was looking at an Islamist group with potential links to Iran, following unsubstantiated claims of responsibility by Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya - The Islamic Movement of the People of the Right Hand.
Oh.
Well no doubt all sorts will claim responsibility. Some of them might even be truly foreign.
The BBC has also seen CCTV footage which shows three men approaching the synagogue in February. Members of the Jewish community now believe this could have been a surveillance attempt before the attack this week. The footage, which has since been handed to police, shows a man trying to pull a locked door handle. When challenged, they said they were looking for a local mosque.
Oh,BBC! Bag open, cat frolicking in plain sight!
