Extending the 28-day limit for police to hold terror suspects without charge "would have helped in cases such as the recent anti-terror raid in Forest Gate"

Interesting statement. Does that mean they'd have been able to hold them longer without admitting they'd got the wrong people? They didn't actually try to hold them for 28 days anyway, did they?

Because it sounds like a sneaky way to claim that they did have the right people, honest, they just weren't able to find the evidence in time...
