Irish police have arrested a second man in connection with the London Bridge terrorist attack on the weekend.
A man aged in his thirties was detained in Wexford, in the south east, at around 5pm on Tuesday as part of ongoing investigations into Irish links to the atrocity.
The suspect is being questioned about documentation connected to Rachid Redouane, one of the three killers behind the weekend attack.
Redouane married British woman Charisse Ann O'Leary in Ireland in November 2012 and gave an address in Dublin.
He left the country at some point and is believed to have lived in Ireland again in 2015.
Police confirmed a suspect was being held at Wexford Garda station in connection with documentation linked to Redouane under the Theft and Fraud Offences Act.
He can be questioned for up to 24 hours
A case file is being prepared on another man who was arrested and later released without charge over the discovery in Limerick of identity documents in Redouane's name.
The Director of Public Prosecutions will be asked to assess if he should be charged in relation to offences under theft and fraud laws.
Redouane is known to have lived in Ireland at different times over the last number of years.
