A Sydney man has been charged under New South Wales terror laws after police arrested him during “a short struggle” at a home in Redfern.

The 24-year-old man was arrested on Friday after police conducted an unscheduled search of his Redfern home and viewed “items” on his mobile phone.

He was taken to the Botany Bay police station and charged under the Terrorism High Risk Offenders Act.

The police, who seized the man’s phone, allege he had failed to comply with interim supervision orders recently imposed on him.

He was charged with several terror-related offences, and the police also said he resisted arrest.

But police say they've 'fully co-operated' and are 'no longer suspects'.

More than 100-thousand travellers were affected when drones caused flights at the airport to be grounded. </s> Two men from Dewsbury arrested on suspected terror charges have been released without charge.

The two men, aged 52 and 21, were detained after armed police swooped on two homes in Headfield Road, Savile Town, around midnight on Tuesday.

Residents across Dewsbury heard “loud bangs” – said by police to be ‘flash grenades’ – as they forced entry to the properties.

The men were arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism.

Officers from the North East Counter Terrorism Unit were granted until Tuesday, April 10 to hold the men.

However, the force revealed on Saturday night they had been released without charge, though investigations remain on-going.

A police statement says: “We would like to reassure the public that public safety remains our priority at all times.

“Extensive enquiries have satisfied the investigation that there are no grounds to charge the men with terrorism offences.”

Michael Boatwright, 22, was the one of the two suspects who approached the rapper, whose real name was Jahseh Onfroy, and shot him when he was leaving the Riva Motorsports shop in Deerfield Beach, north of Miami on June 18, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office said.

The suspect was first arrested on drug-related charges on July 5 and served with an arrest warrant on Tuesday for first-degree murder while being held at Broward Sheriff’s Office Main Jail, the sheriff's office said.

The first arrest in this investigation was made on June 21 when Florida police pulled over Dedrick Williams, 22, and charged him with first-degree murder without premeditation, a probation violation and with failing to have a valid driver's license. </s> Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny said he was briefly detained Thursday for organising illegal protests as Russia prepares to hold presidential polls next month.

Navalny, who has been barred from challenging President Vladimir Putin in the election, now faces a court hearing and up to 30 days in prison after being formally charged over an unauthorised January 28 protest when he urged supporters to boycott the upcoming vote.

Writing on Twitter, the prominent Kremlin critic said: "I came out of the dentist's and what do you know -- the second operative (police) regiment, 'you're detained'."

The 41-year-old later wrote that he was taken to a police station where he was charged with repeatedly breaking rules on holding protests.

"I've been released pending trial. I don't know when the hearing will be," he said.

In a statement, city police said Navalny had been told to come to the police station to read the case materials but had not done so.

Navalny, who cannot contest the election because of a criminal conviction he says is politically motivated, was detained on January 28 during a Moscow rally but released later that day without facing court.

He suggested the delayed hearing was a move by the Kremlin to ensure he would be in prison during the run-up to the election.

At almost the same time as Navalny's arrest on Thursday, his campaign chief Leonid Volkov was detained at a Moscow airport with police charging him over the same January 28 protest.

Many hours later, a court ruled to arrest Volkov for 30 days, the campaign chief tweeted. The decision means he will not be released until after the election.

With Russia pushing through a surge of legal action targeting Navalny's followers, a court on Thursday sentenced a man to a year in a penal colony for hitting a police officer during an anti-government rally in March 2017 that drew tens of thousands of protesters.

Six other participants in that demonstration have already been sentenced to between eight months and three years in penal colonies for "violence" against law enforcement officers.

And at another court hearing on Thursday, activist Roman Rubanov was sentenced to 10 days in jail for urging people to attend January's unauthorised rally on Twitter.

Navalny was also summoned for questioning this month by the powerful Investigative Committee over an allegation he attacked police during his detention after the rally.

If charged, he could face jail time.

Volkov on Tuesday tweeted that Navalny's supporters have already served a combined 2,433 days behind bars and had to pay a total of 13.4 million rubles ($237,000/192,000 euros) in various fines.

The latest detentions come ahead of a march on Sunday in memory of slain opposition leader Boris Nemtsov, who was gunned down three years ago on a bridge close to the Kremlin.

Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin announced Thursday that a commemorative plaque would be put up on the Moscow block where the former deputy prime minister with fiercely anti-Putin views lived.

Navalny has recently caused controversy with a viral video report alleging influential Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Prikhodko enjoyed lavish hospitality from billionaire tycoon Oleg Deripaska.

On Wednesday, Navalny's anti-corruption foundation released a fresh YouTube video related to the allegations that has already been viewed more than 750,000 times.

Both Prikhodko and Deripaska deny the allegations.

Navalny has faced a string of administrative and criminal charges that he and his supporters see as politically motivated since he became the leading opposition figure campaigning against Putin's rule at mass rallies in 2011 and 2012. </s> A second suspect has been arrested in XXXTentacion's murder case.

Nearly a month after the 20-year-old rapper was killed in a shooting in Florida, Michael Boatwright, 22, of Fort Lauderdale has been taken into custody, the Broward County Sherrif's Office confirmed on Wednesday. According to a press release from the Broward Sheriff's Office, investigators allege Boatwright was one of two armed suspects who confronted the late star, legally named Jahseh Onfroy, on June 18. Per authorities, Boatwright was initially arrested on July 5 on unrelated drug charges. On July 10, he was served an arrest warrant for first-degree murder while in jail and currently faces a first-degree murder charge.

In late June, the Broward County Sheriff's Office confirmed 22-year-old suspect Dedrick Devonshay Williams was arrested in relation to the murder on charges of first-degree murder, described as murder dangerous depraved without premeditation, as well as grand theft of a motor vehicle and operating without a valid driver's license. He is currently in custody.
The two people arrested by police two days earlier are released without charges.
