A teenager arrested over claims hackers accessed Scotland Yard's anti-terror hotline is to be questioned by detectives for a second night.

A 17-year-old arrested in the West Midlands has been transferred to London but a 16-year-old was released on bail. Hackers Team Poison posted recordings online to YouTube, which apparently show them speaking to the hotline, and officers discussing operations.

The Met Police denied claims the confidential hotline had been hacked. The teenagers were arrested on suspicion of offences under the Malicious Communications Act. They were also held in relation to a separate investigation under the Computer Misuse Act.
