Six people arrested by UK police
over alleged terror offences after a group was stopped at the
Turkey-Syria border have been released without charge.
Five people
aged between 21 and 47 were arrested earlier this month on suspicion of
commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.A 30-year-old man, also from Rochdale, has also been released without charge.
The councillor father of one of the five has said his son is "very happy to be back with his family".
The five were among a group of nine from Rochdale - five adults and four children - detained in Turkey three weeks ago.
The nine were initially held in the Turkish city of Hatay. They were suspected of being en route to Syria.
Hatay is 46 miles (75km) from Aleppo in Syria
