Police said Sunday that a 37-year-old man arrested Thursday after a suspected grenade was found in his luggage at Gatwick airport had been charged under the Terrorism Act. Hasil Mohammed Rahaham-Alan was charged with possession of explosives, possession of items for terrorist purposes and carrying a dangerous item on a flight. Police said he was a Venezuelan national and was arrested after arriving on a flight from Caracas. The discovery led officers to shut the airport's North Terminal for several hours.
