A Portuguese judge ordered the deportation of seven Arab men arrested after a tip from Dutch intelligence, a source said.

The six Moroccans and one Tunisian were among 15 Arab men arrested Friday in Porto, about 175 miles north of Lisbon, by police and the Security Intelligence Service.

Those arrested included a man who a spokesman for the Dutch intelligence service AIVD said was part of a radical Islamic group in the Netherlands. The seven men had faced possible immigration charges. The other eight were released.
