Update: Alleged Jihadists Placed in Detention in Netherlands

The three Dutch citizens and Moroccan with Dutch residency arrested in Kenya have been placed in detention in the Netherlands. A court in Rotterdam on Friday ordered their detention, a court official said. All four were to be kept in custody for 14 days, lawyer Vincent de Winkel told AFP. Following their arrest in July the men were expelled from Kenya to Belgium, and extradited to the Netherlands on August 5, 2009. They were arrested at the Somalian border allegedly travelling to a jihadist training camp.
