They have searched the home of suspect Usman Khan, who was shot dead by police after the attack that left two people dead.
Khan was released from jail last year after serving half of a 16 year sentence for plotting to bomb the London Stock Exchange.
The UK justice ministry says it's reviewing the early release conditions for every convicted terrorist.
