They CNN is reporting that nine of the 11 Pakistanis who were being held in an alleged terror plot in northern England have been released.
The arrests were made the week before Easter and came quickly after Britain\'s chief terrorism officer, exposed a list of people who were suspected of planning an al Qaeda-linked attack.
The officer has since resigned.
The CNN quotes Britain\'s Greater Manchester Police as saying the men were released into the custody of the U.K.\'s border agency, which will determine whether they can legally remain in England.
Police and the border agency said they want the men deported, even though investigators apparently were unable to find enough evidence to charge them with crimes.
