Two men have been arrested under the Terrorism Act by police officers investigating the PSNI data breach. The suspects, aged 21 and 22, were arrested on Saturday in the Portadown area of County Armagh, the Police Service of Northern Ireland said on X, formerly known as Twitter. They will be questioned at the Musgrave serious crime suite in Belfast. DCI Avine Kelly said: “We continue to work toward establishing those who possess information relating to last week’s data breach, and will take action to ensure that any criminality identified is dealt with robustly to keep communities, and our officers and staff who serve them, safe.” In August the PSNI said a document was mistakenly uploaded in response to a freedom of information request, which included the names of about 10,000 officers and civilian staff members.
