The wider family of Manchester Arena bomber Salman Abedi ‘holds significant responsibility’ for his radicalisation - while Manchester-based Islamic State ‘poster boys’ also encouraged him, the public inquiry into the atrocity has concluded.
Inquiry chairman Sir John Saunders blamed dad Ramadan Abedi, mother Samia Tabbal and brother Ismail Abedi for turning Salman Abedi and his accomplice brother Hashem into Islamic State fanatics prepared to kill children at a pop concert.
All ‘held extremist views’ and are believed to be in Libya. The pair were also inspired by ‘poster boys for Islamic State’, a report has said.
