Manchester Jewish House of Worship Attack Suspect Detained Again at Air Terminal
A man previously arrested in connection with the Manchester synagogue attack has been re-arrested at the city's airport.
Two individuals lost their lives when Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, executed a car and knife assault at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on 2 October.
Counter Terrorism Policing North West stated the thirty-year-old suspect was originally arrested on suspected planning, preparing, and instigating of acts of terrorism.
Police indicated he was re-arrested at Manchester Airport on suspected failing to disclose information contrary to Section 38B of the 2000 Terrorism Act. He has since been granted bail with specific conditions.
Law enforcement added they "are confident there is no continuing danger to the public following the incident the previous week."
Six people were detained in the aftermath of the incident, with two—one male and one female—arrested in the following hours and then released on Sunday night.
The following day, investigators announced they had been granted extra time to interrogate the other four individuals, who were also held on "suspected planning, preparation, and instigation of acts of terrorism."
On Wednesday, authorities indicated they too were scheduled for release but emphasized that "did not mean the probe was complete."
Also on that day, the force revealed that the suspect placed an emergency call in which he pledged allegiance to the group calling itself IS.
Melvin Cravitz, 66, and fifty-three-year-old Adrian Daulby lost their lives in the attack on a local road in the area.
Mr Daulby sustained a bullet injury after armed police officers responded to the scene and shot the attacker fatally.
A police bullet also hit another man, a bystander, who is undergoing treatment after an operation.
