London: Jet Airways employee Amin Asmin Tariq, who was among 24 people arrested in Britain in connection with the foiled terror plot to blow up the US-bound flights, has been released as investigators found no evidence against him.
Tariq, a British passport holder who was suspended by the airline following his arrest, was released by police last week with no further action taken.
Tariq was "wholly innocent" of any involvement in terrorism, his lawyer Muddassar Arani was quoted as saying by the 'Daily Mail'.
Arani said not a "shred of evidence" was disclosed to him during his 14 days in police custody. His good name had been "blackened" by being linked to the plot, she said.
When asked about the development, a spokesman for Scotland Yard said "we do not release the names of the persons who have not been charged."
