I was just wondering what was going on with these people as the Brits can only hold them for 26 hours before charging them.

"the Brits can only hold them for 26 hours before charging them."

That's 28 days btw.

In the UK you can go to a judge for extra time. In the case of terrorists they can be held for up to 28 days but at 7 days have to go before a branch judge for permission and at 14 days before the high court.

Fact is parliament voted down a 90 day holding bill (with juridical review) for such alleged terrorists a only 3 months ago. If this goes tot he wire there will be some red faces - including our Conservative party who voted (mostly) against the measure.
