He was quizzed on suspicion of dissemination of terrorist publications (contrary to Section 2 of the Terrorism Act 2006).

The boy's home in the West Midlands was also searched following his arrest on November 22.

He has since been bailed to a date in mid-February 2023.

"The investigation relates to Islamist terrorism.

"Enquiries continue."
