Police are investigating an alleged extreme right-wing threat targeting a UK Islamic event in Suffolk, which led to the early closure of the gathering on police advice.
Eight more people have been freed from custody, as police continue to investigate an alleged extreme right-wing threat to an Islamic event in Suffolk.
Officers became aware of the threat to the UK Ijtima event at Shrubland Hall, near Ipswich, last weekend.
Thousands of people attended the gathering but it closed early on police advice.
The Metropolitan Police said on Saturday that seven men were released from custody without charge, while another man was released on bail with strict conditions pending further inquiries.
The force said the investigation involved searching homes and vehicles, and more than 35 digital devices were seized.
Following those searches, a 42-year-old man was charged with two counts of possession of offensive weapons, extendable batons, and possession of a stun gun.
Police said the charges were not believed to be connected to the alleged threat on UK Ijtima.
The man was remanded in custody to appear at Reading Magistrates' Court on Monday.
Four other people were previously released on bail pending further inquiries.
