A man previously arrested in connection with the Manchester City synagogue attack has been taken into custody again at the city's airport.

A pair of victims lost their lives when the attacker, 35, executed a car and knife assault at the Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on 2 October.

North West Counter Terrorism Police stated the 30-year-old suspect was originally arrested on suspected the commission, preparation and instigation of terrorist activities.

Police clarified he was detained again at Manchester Airport on suspected failing to disclose information in violation of Section 38B of the Terrorism Act 2000. He has since been granted bail with certain restrictions.

Police stated they "are confident there is no continuing danger to the public following the incident the previous week."

Six people were held in the wake of the incident, with a pair—a man and a woman—taken into custody in the following hours and then freed on Sunday evening.

The next day, investigators announced they had been given additional time to question the remaining four, who were also held on "suspicion of commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism."

On midweek, authorities indicated they too were set to be released but clarified that "did not mean the investigation was finished."

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

Melvin Cravitz, 66, and 53-year-old another victim died in the attack on Middleton Road in the area.

The victim sustained a gunshot wound after armed police officers responded to the incident and fatally shot the attacker dead.

A police bullet also hit another man, Yoni Finlay, who is undergoing treatment after surgery.
