Have you got a source on that part of the terrorism act, it's not something I've heard of.


http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2000/11/contents

more specifically section 29, 1, (d):

http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2000/11/schedule/8/part/...

Though F1 seems to have been edited since i last looked.. still its in theory, unlimited detention without trial.

There is also the Terrorism Act 2006, which i think extended the standard limit to 26 days.. Not sure if this was ever repealed.
