A man suspected of preparing to carry out a terror attack has been arrested at Heathrow airport.
Counter terrorism officers detained the 22-year-old when he returned to the UK from an undisclosed location on December 2.
He was held on suspicion of the preparation of terrorist acts, contrary to section 5 of the Terrorism Act 2006, before being bailed to a date in February.
The South East Counter Terrorism Unit said there was no "imminent threat" to airport passengers or the community at the time he was detained.
They confirmed his arrest related to conflicts overseas.
