Man arrested in connection with suspected RAF terror plot called police on self - report
The suspect called 999 almost an hour before a farmer driving home called the police after seeing three vans surrounded by men in balaclavas, according to the report.
A suspect in a suspected bomb attack on a Royal Air Force base called the police almost an hour before the operation was thwarted, according to The Times. The caller, one of the suspects, remains under investigation for their motives, with authorities considering if the call was genuine or part of the larger plan. Police are investigating the motives behind the operation, as no explosive devices were found, and are exploring the possibility of surveillance, security testing, or a message to the British government.
Searches of London properties and vehicles at the scene were conducted, but no explosive devices were present. The head of national counter-terrorism policing defended the decision to release the five suspects on bail, stating that it was an investigative decision grounded in experience and careful consideration of policing powers.
