(AFP) Five people arrested in northern France last week as part of an investigation into a criminal terrorist conspiracy have been released without charge, a judicial source said Monday.
Four of them, students aged between 20 and 23 years old, were released on Saturday and a fifth man, a student born in 2002, who the authorities identified as being radicalised, was released on Sunday.
They had been arrested following fears that some kind of attack was being planned.
But a source close to the case said Monday there was for the moment no new evidence to support that theory, even if the investigation was continuing.
