The solicitor of a woman released without charge after being arrested in connection with the July 7 bombings has condemned police for her treatment.
Last night Scotland Yard confirmed three people arrested in connection with the July 7 bombings had been released without charge.
Those released include Hasina Patel, 29, the widow of London bombings ringleader Mohammed Sidique Khan.
Ms Patel's solicitor, Imran Khan, said he was relieved his client had been released, but shocked at the way she had been treated.
He said police had destroyed relations with the Muslim community in the way they had behaved towards the widow of Mohammed Sidique Khan.
A fourth man aged 34, Khalid Khaliq, remains in custody after police were granted a warrant to detain him for further questioning until May 21.
The two men released are Ms Patel's brother Arshad and Imran Motala.
The four were arrested in a series of anti-terror raids last Wednesday, during which properties in West Yorkshire and the West Midlands were searched.
All four, held on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, were taken to the high-security Paddington Green police station in London for questioning.
Mr Khan told BBC News 24: "I'm relieved that she's out after her ordeal and shocked that the police only revealed at the last minute information which they had in their possession before Hasina was arrested which shows she had no idea, not an inkling of what Mohammed Sidique Khan was going to do."
While Mr Khan said he was not at liberty to reveal what that information was, he said it showed "clearly and unequivocally" that she knew nothing of what Sidique Khan was planning.
