And Then There Were 5 Jihadi Doctors (Update - Are there now 6?)

Topics: Terrorism

Sky News reports that there are now five doctors who are being held in connection with the London - Glasgow attempted terror attacks. A total of eight people are now being held by police in connection with the attempted bombing in Scotland and two car bombs found in London's West End.

Update: Doctor arrested in Brisbane over UK terror plots, as the investigation of the plot reaches into Australia. So, are there now 6 jihadi doctors or is the Australian arrest included in the 5 reported earlier? From the article we learn that authorities in the UK announced the arrest earlier today, saying only that the arrest was made at "an undisclosed location". The BBC had reported that it was an overseas arrest. Likely, the jihadi doctor arrested in Australia is one of the 5, but it isn't yet clear.
