Five men have been arrested over a spate of recent web attacks carried out in support of Wikileaks.
The five males are being held after a series of arrests at residential addresses in the West Midlands, Northamptonshire, Hertfordshire, Surrey and London this morning.
The men were arrested in relation to recent and ongoing attacks by an online group that calls itself "Anonymous".
Targets included the websites of PayPal, Mastercard and Amazon.
The men were arrested this morning at 0700 GMT in connection with offences under the Computer Misuse Act.
This investigation by the Central e-Crime Unit was carried out in conjunction with law enforcement agencies in Europe and the US.
All five have been taken to local police stations where they remain in custody.
