"Kidnapping plot search continues"

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Forensic officers have spent the night searching 12 Birmingham properties in connection with an alleged plot to kidnap and kill a Muslim soldier.
Police are continuing to question nine men arrested over what security sources say was a plan to film the soldier being executed and post it on the web.

A Muslim serviceman who had served in Afghanistan and was on home leave was thought to be the target of the plot.

Police said the investigation was likely to take "days, if not weeks".

Officers sealed off roads across the city and are continuing to search homes and commercial premises.

All nine were arrested under the Terrorism Act - meaning police have a maximum of 28 days to hold them. They are being held at police stations in the West Midlands."

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Wednesday's arrests - orchestrated by police and the security service, MI5 - followed many months of activity.

Shortly after 0400 GMT, officers swooped on 12 addresses in the Sparkhill, Alum Rock, Kingstanding and Edgbaston areas and made eight arrests.


Among them were two houses and a general food store in Alum Rock and the Maktabah book store in Stratford Road, Sparkhill.

Less than 12 hours later, police announced in a press conference they had arrested a ninth person in the Birmingham area.

Assistant Chief Constable David Shaw, of West Midlands Police, told reporters: "That illustrates to you that this remains a dynamic, fluid operation and this is by no means finished."

He described being at "the foothills" of "a very, very major investigation"."
