Rotterdam terrorism suspects ordered back to jail

Two Algerian men arrested with French terror suspect Anis B. in Rotterdam late last month, will remain in custody. The court extended the custody of the 47-year-old suspect with 30 days and the 43-year-old suspect got another 90 days, NOS reports. Both Algerians are suspected of participation in a terrorist organization. The 43-year-old is also suspected of sheltering B. A third suspect was previously released. Anis B. was arrested at the request of the French authorities. He is suspected of planning a terrorist attack in France. Some 45 kilos of ammunition was found in the Rotterdam apartment where he stayed. B. is still in custody awaiting extradition to France.
