Our senior international correspondent, Nic Robertson, is in Liverpool with the latest on that investigation.</s>NIC ROBERTSON, CNN SENIOR INTERNATIONAL CORRESPONDENT (voice- over): Day four of the police investigation and they're still searching, here in Liverpool, two apartments in the building behind me. Police say they have released one of the 12 men arrested, an 18 year old. But he's not released, free to go. He's been released to the custody of the British border authorities. That leaves open the possibility that he will be either deported or could face questioning on immigration issues. Police say that the other 11 men they have, their ages range from 22 to 41. They also say that they have applied to a judge and received permission to hold those 11 men for another seven days of questioning.</s>LEMON: Our senior international correspondent, Nic Robertson. British authorities believe the foiled terror plot was al Qaeda driven. It's also believed there was a link between al Qaeda commanders in Pakistan and the suspects held in the U.K. Pakistan says it will cooperate in the probe. She says she learned to play her own game even though she's Tiger Woods niece. We'll tee off with Cheyenne Woods.
