FRENCH anti-terror police tonight arrested 11 people suspected of links with Muslim extremists, it has emerged.
Eight men were detained in southern towns and cities of Marseille, Aubagne, Marignane and in Bordeaux on suspicion of trafficking firearms and explosives, news website 20.minutes.fr reported.

According to French news channel LCI, three others were arrested for membership of an extremist group and being part of a cell planning to supply shelter and fake ID papers to Jihadists attempting to return to France after undergoing training on the Afghan-Pakistan border.

The arrests followed the detention on Saturday of a 28-year-old Algerian man, wanted by French police, at a train station in Naples, southern Italy.
