Two men and a woman held following a major anti-terrorism operation across northern England last week have been released without charge, police said on Monday.
The three, all from the Manchester area, were freed following hearings at the city's magistrates court on Friday and Saturday, a Greater Manchester Police spokesman said.
"Under the Terrorism Act 2000, people have to either charged or released completely, as you cannot bail people under this legislation," the spokesman said.
Ten people were held in a series of anti-terror raids involving 400 police officers across northern England last Monday.
