Former Guantanamo Bay detainee Moazzam Begg has walked out of Belmarsh prison in south-east London after the Crown Prosecution Service dropped a string of terrorist charges linked to the civil war in Syria.
West Midlands Police have said the decision to drop seven terror charges against Moazzam Begg came after the discovery of "new material" relating to his case.
Chief constable Marcus Beale said: "New material has recently been disclosed to police and CPS, which has a significant impact on key pieces of evidence that underpinned the prosecution's case."
"Our criminal justice system - quite rightly - demands a very high standard of proof," he added.
He declined to go into further detail about the evidence, saying: "Explaining what this newly revealed information is would mean discussing other aspects of the case which would be unfair and inappropriate as they are no longer going to be tested in court."
