US told in advance about airport detention

David Miranda questioned on ‘entire life’ for nine hours by six agents at Heathrow

British officials gave their US counterparts a “heads up” before detaining the partner of the journalist who first reported secrets leaked by fugitive US intelligence agency contractor Edward Snowden, the White House said today.

Arriving at Rio de Janeiro airport, Mr Miranda said: “I remained in a room. There were six different agents coming and going. They asked questions about my entire life, about everything. “They took my computer, video game, mobile phone, my memory card. Everything.”

"Heads up" means "Hey we're detaining that guy you asked us to detain, just FYI"
