A man previously arrested in connection with the Manchester City Jewish house of worship violent incident has been re-arrested at the city's airport.

Two individuals lost their lives when Jihad Al-Shamie, thirty-five, executed a combined vehicle and knife assault at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on October 2.

North West Counter Terrorism Police reported the thirty-year-old man was originally arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism.

Authorities indicated he was re-arrested at the city airport on suspicion of withholding information in violation of Section 38B of the 2000 Terrorism Act. He has since been granted bail with certain restrictions.

Police stated they "do not believe there is any ongoing threat to the general public following the event the previous week."

Six individuals were held in the aftermath of the incident, with two—a man and a woman—arrested in the hours afterwards and then released on Sunday night.

The next day, detectives stated they had been granted extra time to interrogate the remaining four, who were also detained on "suspected commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism."

On Wednesday, police indicated they too were set to be released but clarified that "did not mean the investigation 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, 66, and fifty-three-year-old another victim died in the violent event on a local road in Crumpsall.

Mr Daulby sustained a bullet injury after armed police officers arrived at the incident and fatally shot the attacker fatally.

A officer's bullet also hit a different individual, Yoni Finlay, who is recovering in hospital after surgery.
