Nearly 6,000 foreign criminals freed to live freely in Britain

    Nearly 6,000 foreign national criminals who are eligible for deportation from Britain have been released to live in the community, new figures have revealed. Official Home Office data disclosed how an average of five foreign offenders a day were freed from jail or bailed from immigration detention in the final three months of last year. Many will be claiming they cannot be deported because of their human rights, including the "right to private and family life" under Labour's Human Rights Act.

In 2012 the figure was less than 4,000. The figures, reported for the first time today, emerged in a report by t...

After two years there was no difference in cognitive performance between the groups but when the participants were tested with a more sensitive exam to look at episodic memory, those who took the supplement performed better than the control gr...

FireEye hired to help probe Bangladesh Bank heist: Sources

    FireEye Inc's Mandiant forensics division is helping to investigate a cyber heist at Bangladesh's central bank last month that netted more than $80 million, people familiar with the matter told Reuters on Thursday. The two sources said Silicon Valley-based FireEye, which has investigated some of the biggest cyber thefts on record, was brought in by World Informatix, a smaller firm that is advising Bangladesh Bank on the investigation.

Asthana recruited Mandiant to help with the probe, according to sources who asked not be identified due to the sensitive nature of the matter. One of those sources, a senior official with the central ban...
