    London (CNN)<\/strong> — British police arrested five men on suspicion of terrorism near a nuclear power plant in northeastern England, they announced Tuesday.<\/p>\n

    The men, all in their 20s and from London, were arrested Monday close to the Sellafield nuclear facility after police officers from the Civil Nuclear Constabulary conducted a “stop check” on their vehicle, Cumbria Constabulary said. Cumbria Constabulary officers arrested the men.<\/p>\n

    There is no indication that the incident is linked to the killing of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, police said.<\/p>\n

    The suspects were taken to police custody in Carlisle overnight and were to be transported to Manchester Tuesday morning, police said.<\/p>\n

    They will be questioned by an anti-terror unit there, police said.<\/p>\n

    They are being held under a 2000 anti-terror law that allows police to arrest suspects without a warrant and hold them for up to 48 hours without charge.<\/p>\n

    Roads were closed in the area briefly at the time of the arrests, Monday afternoon, authorities said. No further information was released.<\/p>\n

    CNN’s Andrew Carey contributed to this report.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
