N ew CCTV images of the Manchester bomber have been released by police hoping to “jog people’s memories” of sightings.
Police have now released the remaining people held for questioning over links with the Manchester Arena attacker Salman Abedi.
They believe he worked alone to build the bomb, but they said it remains unclear whether he acted with others to gather its parts.
T he force also said officers are yet to speak to Abedi’s brother Hashim, who has been detained by authorities in Libya along with their father Ramadan.
Hashim reportedly told Libyan counter-terror forces he knew his brother was planning something and that the 22-year-old was radicalised while living in the UK two years before his deadly attack.
Hashim said he had bought “all the necessary things” for his brother’s attack in Britain, a spokesman for Tripoli’s Special Deterrence Force told the news agency Reuters.
Almost three weeks on from the suicide bombing which left 22 people dead and more than 200 injured, Greater Manchester Police have issued the new images of Salman Abedi, the white Nissan Micra he used and a barrel stored inside the car.
T he British-born extremist of Libyan descent is believed to have built the explosive alone before he detonated the device as concert-goers began leaving a show by US singer Ariana Grande at 10.31pm on May 22.
D etective Chief Superintendent Russ Jackson, the head of North West Counter Terrorism Policing, said: “We have tracked him buying nuts from a DIY store that were used for shrapnel as well as the tin which we believe the explosive was placed in.
