The police have searched mosque in the UK attended by Nicky Reilly, a man described as mentally slow by authorities, who tried to blow himself up in Exeter City Center. Authorities say Muslim extreemists took advantage of the man's mental state, sheperding him through a conversion to Islam and inciting him to blow himself up.

Police investigating an explosion at a restaurant in Exeter are searching a Muslim centre and a house after the arrest of a third man late yesterday.

The properties are in Plymouth where Devon and Cornwall police officers have searched other premises since the attack last Thursday.

Assistant Chief Constable Bob Spencer said the searches were linked to the arrest of the man.

He declined to release any details of the third suspect or where he was arrested. A fourth man was helping officers with their inquiries.
