ITALIAN police have arrested a man suspected of sending letter bombs to Euro officials, including North-west MEP Gary Titley.
Officers believe Luca Farris, aged 25, may have sent a package containing threats to European Commission President Romano Prodi's home in Bologna last month.
Farris was arrested in Sardinia by police probing anarchist groups suspected of sending the postal bombs.
They are now investigating whether Farris may have had a role in the letter bombs sent to Mr Titley's office in Spring Lane, Radcliffe, and the offices of other EU officials. Mr Titley's wife Charo was slightly injured when she opened the parcel. Mr Titley is leader of Britain's Labour MEPs in Europe.
