The alleged terrorist ETA was arrested in London

The alleged member of the Basque separatist group of ETA, the Spaniard, Kemen Uranga Artol, was detained by the British police in London, writes on Wednesday The Telegraph .

Artola, who was on the run for 12 years, according to preliminary data, lived in London on a fake passport. The police emphasized that his arrest has nothing to do with the Olympics.

It is reported that in 2000 the detainee helped members of the organization with the placement and storage of explosives. Spain issued a warrant to his arrest back in 2001, but after that Artol was gone.

Note that the American authorities in 2002 introduced a fugitive to the list of terrorists.

Over the past few months, four expected ETA members have been detained in the UK . Moreover, from the moment the organization announced the cessation of its activities in October last year, more than 20 of its probable participants were arrested throughout Europe.
