Tamil asylum seekers released by counter-terrorism police
FOUR Tamil asylum-seekers have been released from police custody amid a terrorism investigation, writes Phil Miller.
The men tried to claim asylum when their international flight landed at Luton airport on Wednesday evening.
They told airport authorities they face persecution in their native Sri Lanka over “connections” to the outlawed Tamil Tigers.
