British police will attempt to bring the brother of Manchester Arena suicide bomber Salman Abedi back to the UK from Libya after being granted a warrant for his arrest. Anti-terror police said an extradition request was handed to the authorities in Libya on Wednesday where Hashem Abedi is currently in custody. Both brothers travelled to Libya in April, before Salman returned alone before carrying out the attack on May 22, which left 22 dead and hundreds injured. “The arrest warrant relates to the murder of 22 people, the attempted murder of others who were injured and conspiracy to cause an explosion. In all 512 people were either physically injured or left “profoundly traumatised” Mr Jackson said, with 112 treated in hospital.
