Manchester Synagogue Assault Individual Detained Again at Air Terminal
A individual initially detained in relation to the Manchester City Jewish house of worship violent incident has been taken into custody again at the city's airport.
Two individuals lost their lives when Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, carried out a combined vehicle and knife attack at the Heaton Park synagogue on October 2.
North West Counter Terrorism Police reported the 30-year-old man was first detained on suspicion of planning, preparing, and instigating of acts of terrorism.
Police clarified he was re-arrested at the city airport on suspicion of failing to disclose information contrary to Section 38B of the Terrorism Act 2000. He has since been granted bail with certain restrictions.
Law enforcement added they "do not believe there is no continuing danger to the general public following the event the previous week."
Six individuals were held in the wake of the incident, with two—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 other four individuals, who were also detained on "suspected planning, preparation, and instigation of acts of terrorism."
On Wednesday, police stated they too were scheduled for release but clarified that "did not mean the probe was finished."
Also on that day, the force disclosed that the attacker made a 999 call in which he swore loyalty to the group calling itself Islamic State.
One victim, 66, and 53-year-old Adrian Daulby lost their lives in the violent event on Middleton Road in Crumpsall.
The victim sustained a bullet injury after armed police officers arrived at the scene and shot the attacker dead.
A police bullet also hit another man, a bystander, who is recovering in hospital after surgery.
