Police have been given an extra five days to continue questioning the three men and one woman arrested Tuesday (Feb 25) on suspicion of Syria-related terrorism offences.
A district judge assessed the progress of the investigation and granted a warrant of further detention until the morning of Tuesday March 4.
Meanwhile, searches continue at the three home addresses of the individuals detained.
They are a 45 year old man from Hall Green, suspected of attending a terrorist training camp and facilitating terrorism overseas, a 36 year old man from Shirley, suspected of facilitating terrorism overseas, and a 44 year old woman and her 20 year old son from Sparkhill, also suspected of facilitating terrorism overseas.
Detectives from the West Midlands Counter Terrorism Unit detained all four in a pre-planned operation. They stressed there had been no immediate threat to public safety.
