An eighth person has been held in Australia as part of the investigation into car bombing attempts in Glasgow and London.
Australian Federal Police and Queensland Police confirmed a man was arrested at Brisbane Airport. Searches have been carried out at the Gold Coast Hospital, in Southport, Queensland, where the 27-year-old registrar worked.
The arrest is in relation to attempted car bombings outside a nightclub in the West End of London on Friday and an attack almost 36 hours later on Glasgow Airport, when two men drove a blazing Cherokee Jeep into its entrance.
Meanwhile, a controlled explosion has been carried out on a suspicious vehicle parked outside Forth Street Mosque in the Pollokshields area of Glasgow.
On Monday, Home Secretary Jacqui Smith told the Commons that 19 UK addresses have been searched as part of the inquiry into a suspected al-Qaeda cell.
