The Metropolitan Police confirmed that a 42-year-old woman and a 60-year-old man were arrested today at two different locations in London. Both individuals are suspected of providing information to Iran's intelligence service. In addition, a third property in north-west London was searched on September 9 as part of the investigation, which is being conducted under the National Security Act. The police have clarified that this investigation is not connected to recent attacks targeting buildings and venues associated with the Jewish and Iranian communities in London. It also does not appear to be linked to any events or activities related to the Jewish High Holy Days, which are significant religious observances in Judaism. Both the man and the woman have been released on conditional bail and are expected to appear in court in October. Commander Helen Flanagan, head of Counter Terrorism Policing London, acknowledged that the arrests might cause concern among some members of the public. However, she emphasized that there is no known immediate threat to the general public associated with this case. Commander Flanagan also noted that there has been a noticeable increase in the pace of work related to national security and threats to the state over the past year. This investigation is part of that ongoing effort. She reminded the public that the current terrorism threat level is ranked as 'severe', and urged people to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity.
