UK soldier killing: Bail for duo

Two men arrested on suspicion of being involved in supplying illegal firearms in connection with the Islamist murder of a British soldier were released on bail yesterday.

The two unnamed men, aged 46 and 42, were arrested on Friday. They have been bailed to return to a south London police station in late June, pending further enquiries.

Michael Adebolajo, 28, a convert to Islam who was shot and injured by police in the May 22 incident in Woolwich, is still being held for questioning over the killing of Lee Rigby and the attempted murder of a police officer.

His fellow suspect Michael Adebowale, 22, was discharged from hospital on Tuesday and charged the following day with murder and possessing a revolver.

Twelve people have been arrested as part of the probe into Rigby's murder by Scotland Yard's counter-terror branch. Two women were released without charge and six men accused of conspiracy to murder are out on bail.
