Dutch free men held at airport as terrorism suspects 01 Sep 2010 Two Yemeni men arrested at Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport under suspicion of terrorism have been freed without charge after triggering a 24-hour trans-Atlantic security scare, Dutch prosecutors said on Wednesday. The men were arrested after the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said U.S. authorities had found suspicious items in their luggage, but a U.S. official later cast doubt that the men were part of a terrorism plot.
