Another suspect arrested in London in wake of stabbing outrage

ANOTHER SUSPECT has been arrested in connection with the London Bridge attack.

The 29-year-old was held during a raid at a residential address in Newham, east London, in the early hours of Friday, Scotland Yard said.

The arrest brings to four the number of men being held in connection with Saturday’s attack, in which eight people died.

As the number of arrests mounted it emerged the Saudi Arabian Football Federation had apologised “unreservedly” after its players snubbed a minute’s silence for the victims.

The Saudi squad seemingly declined to line up and pay their respects with the Australian team during a World Cup qualifier, with one seen bending to tie his shoelace.

In a statement the federation said it “deeply regrets and unreservedly apologises for any offence caused”.

It added: “The players did not intend any disrespect to the memories of the victims or to cause upset to their families, friends or any individual affected by the atrocity.

“The Saudi Arabian Football Federation condemns all acts of terrorism and extremism and extends its sincerest condolences to the families of all the victims.”

On Thursday a British Transport Police officer stabbed in the eye during the attack described his anguish at not being able to do more to help those killed and injured.
