MADRID – Two people were arrested on suspicion of terrorism offences in Spain’s north-western Basque Country, police said on Oct 18.
A 34-year-old man and a 22-year-old woman, who are both Spanish but are not named, are under investigation after a police search on Sept 26.
“Among the items seized was information concerning security forces, as well as the potential location of a site containing materials – presumably weapons and explosives,” said a statement from the Ertzaintza, the Basque regional police.
Police did not say if the suspects were held in custody. Both will appear before Spain’s National Court at a later date. REUTERS
