There has to be reasonable suspicion of terrorism if she was singled out for the fact of being a politician. The evidential bar would be high though, and if they think it’s straightforward enough to go after him for murder, then that’ll be that.
A cynic might add that it is useful to hold someone on suspicion of terrorism because the police get a lot more time to hold someone in custody for questioning where terrorism is suspected. But they still would have to show that suspicion was reasonable.
