Manchester Jewish House of Worship Attack Suspect Re-arrested at Airport

A individual initially detained in connection with the Manchester City synagogue attack has been re-arrested at the local airport.

A pair of victims lost their lives when Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, executed a car and knife attack at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on 2 October.

Counter Terrorism Policing North West reported the thirty-year-old man was first detained on suspicion of planning, preparing, and instigating of terrorist activities.

Police clarified he was re-arrested at Manchester Airport on suspected withholding information in violation of Section 38B of the 2000 Terrorism Act. He has since been granted bail with specific conditions.

Law enforcement stated they "do not believe there is no continuing danger to the general public following the incident last week."

Six individuals were held in the aftermath of the attack, with a pair—a man and a woman—arrested in the following hours and then freed on Sunday evening.

The next day, detectives announced they had been given additional time to interrogate the remaining four, who were also detained on "suspicion of commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism."

On Wednesday, police indicated they too were scheduled for release but clarified that "was not an indication the probe was complete."

Also on Wednesday, the force disclosed that the attacker placed an emergency call in which he pledged allegiance to the group calling itself Islamic State.

One victim, sixty-six, and fifty-three-year-old Adrian Daulby died in the violent event on a local road in the area.

Mr Daulby suffered a gunshot wound after armed police officers responded to the scene and shot the attacker dead.

A officer's bullet also hit a different individual, Yoni Finlay, who is recovering in hospital after an operation.
