in unconnected raids by anti-terrorism police.

The arrests are part of a police crackdown on suspected terrorist activity after authorities raised Britannia's terror threat level to "severe" in August and last week introduced new anti-terror legislation.

At the Old Bailey court in London, Brusthom Ziamani, 29, pleaded not guilty to preparing to commit an act of terrorism on or before August 20 this year.

Police say the two London arrests are linked to the earlier arrests of five other terror suspects still being questioned.
