The Government has denied claims the London bomb suspects were arrested last year.
Interior Minister Nicolas Sarkozy said Home Secretary Charles Clarke was keen to let the men go free so they could be monitored.
"It seems that part of this team had been subject to partial arrest ... in Spring 2004," Mr Sarkozy told a news conference.
That was denied by a British official.

Ummm Charles Clarke was only appointed in December 2004 - previous to that he was at Education. So that's a blatant factual inaccuracy for a start. Tut, tut you'd think that the French would have checked that out, wouldn't you?
