A group of British Muslims who were held after an incident at the Great Mosque in Mecca have been released by Saudi religious police.
A British Islamic group says seven Britons and one American were detained.
A spokesman for Islamic group SAVEIT said the arrests were made after police became involved in a debate over religious practice.
The UK Foreign Office said it was assisting the Britons who were released on Sunday morning.
