Dutch free men held at airport as terrorism suspects

Reuters | 01 September, 2010 20:230 Comments

The men were arrested after the US Department of Homeland Security said US authorities had found suspicious items in their luggage, but a US official later cast doubt that the men were part of a terrorism plot.
