LONDON: Police have identified one of the suspects being held in connection with the Parsons Green bombing as 21-year-old Syrian refugee Yahyah Farroukh.

Farroukh was arrested on Saturday close to midnight in West London, according to The Sun. He was arrested under Britain?s Terrorism Act.

The arrest was made after CCTV footage showed one of the suspects preparing form the London Tube bombing was broadcast on British TV.

Earlier, police arrested an 18-year-old man in relation to the London train bombing that injured 30 people.

He was also arrested under the Terrorism Act in the southern port area of Dover.

Four previous attacks in London and Manchester this year claimed the lives of 35 people.

A home-made bomb on a packed rush-hour commuter train in London engulfed a carriage in flames and injured 29 people on Friday, but apparently failed to fully explode, in Britain?s fifth major terrorism incident this year.

Some suffered burns and others were injured in a stampede to escape the station ? one of the above-ground stops on the underground ?Tube? network ? but health officials said none were thought to be in a serious condition.
