A individual initially detained in connection with the Manchester synagogue attack has been taken into custody again at the local airport.

A pair of victims lost their lives when Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, executed a combined vehicle and knife attack at the Heaton Park synagogue on October 2.

Counter Terrorism Policing North West reported the thirty-year-old suspect was first detained on suspected the commission, preparation and instigation of terrorist activities.

Police indicated he was detained again at Manchester Airport on suspected failing to disclose information contrary to Section 38B of the Terrorism Act 2000. He has since been granted bail with specific conditions.

Law enforcement stated 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 a pair—one male and one female—taken into custody in the hours afterwards and then freed on Sunday evening.

The next day, investigators announced they had been granted extra time to interrogate the remaining four, who were also detained on "suspicion of commission, preparation and instigation of terrorist acts."

On midweek, police indicated they too were scheduled for release but clarified that "did not mean the probe was complete."

Also on that day, the force disclosed that the suspect placed an emergency call in which he swore loyalty to the group identifying as IS.

One victim, sixty-six, and fifty-three-year-old Adrian Daulby lost their lives in the violent event on Middleton Road in the area.

Mr Daulby sustained a gunshot wound after armed officers arrived at the scene and fatally shot the attacker dead.

A police bullet also struck a different individual, Yoni Finlay, who is recovering in hospital after surgery.
