Manchester Jewish House of Worship Attack Individual Detained Again at Air Terminal
A man previously arrested in connection with the Manchester Jewish house of worship attack has been taken into custody again at the city's airport.
Two individuals lost their lives when Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, carried out a car and knife attack at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on October 2.
Counter Terrorism Policing North West reported the thirty-year-old man was originally arrested on suspected the commission, preparation and instigation of terrorist activities.
Police clarified he was re-arrested at Manchester Airport on suspicion of withholding information contrary to Section 38B of the 2000 Terrorism Act. He has since been granted bail with specific conditions.
Law enforcement added they "do not believe there is any ongoing threat to the public following the event last week."
Six people were held in the aftermath of the attack, with two—one male and one female—taken into custody in the hours afterwards and then released on Sunday evening.
The following day, detectives stated they had been given additional time to question the other four individuals, who were also detained on "suspected commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism."
On midweek, authorities indicated they too were set to be released but clarified that "was not an indication the probe was finished."
Also on that day, authorities disclosed that the suspect placed an emergency call in which he pledged allegiance to the organization calling itself IS.
Melvin Cravitz, sixty-six, and fifty-three-year-old another victim lost their lives in the attack on a local road in the area.
Mr Daulby sustained a gunshot wound after armed police officers responded to the scene and shot the suspect fatally.
A officer's bullet also hit another man, a bystander, who is undergoing treatment after surgery.
