A 30-year-old man has been arrested in Glasgow in connection with a suicide bombing in Sweden.

Police detained the foreign national under the Terrorism Act during an intelligence-led raid in the city's Whiteinch area at about 0605 GMT.

Two people were hurt in two blasts in Stockholm in December. A man was later found dead with an explosive device.

The Stockholm bomber was named as 28-year-old Iraqi-born Taimour Abdulwahab al-Abdaly, who lived in Luton.

He previously attended the University of Bedfordshire.

The attack was believed to be the first suicide bombing in Sweden's history.
