Manchester Jewish House of Worship Assault Suspect Re-arrested at Airport
A man previously arrested in connection with the Manchester Jewish house of worship violent incident has been re-arrested at the city's airport.
A pair of victims were killed when the attacker, thirty-five, carried out a car and knife assault at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on 2 October.
Counter Terrorism Policing North West reported the 30-year-old suspect was originally arrested on suspected the commission, preparation and instigation of terrorist activities.
Police clarified he was detained again at the city airport on suspected withholding information contrary to Section 38B of the Terrorism Act 2000. He has since been granted bail with certain restrictions.
Law enforcement added they "are confident there is any ongoing threat to the general public following the incident last week."
Six individuals were held in the aftermath of the incident, with two—one male and one female—taken into custody in the following hours and then freed on Sunday night.
The next day, investigators announced they had been given additional time to question the remaining four, who were also held on "suspected planning, preparation, and instigation of acts of terrorism."
On Wednesday, authorities indicated they too were set to be released but emphasized that "was not an indication the investigation was finished."
Also on that day, authorities revealed that the attacker placed an emergency call in which he pledged allegiance to the group calling itself IS.
One victim, 66, and 53-year-old Adrian Daulby died in the attack on a local road in the area.
Mr Daulby suffered a bullet injury after armed officers responded to the incident and shot the attacker dead.
A police bullet also struck another man, a bystander, who is recovering in hospital after surgery.
