Brussels: The arrests of at least four people by Greek anti-terrorism police are not linked to a probe into a jihadist cell broken up this week in Belgium, the Belgian prosecutor`s office said Sunday.

"There is no connection between these people and the enquiry" in Belgium, Eric Van Der Sypt, spokesman for the federal prosecutor`s office, said. Greek anti-terrorism police said they were checking whether those arrested included Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the 27-year-old suspected mastermind of the Belgian cell.
