Detectives have confirmed that Abedi, a British Libyan, bought parts for the devastating bomb after arriving back in the UK but they have been unable to determine whether he acquired parts before he left the UK for Libya.
They have scrutinised CCTV to try to determine when and how the bomb was made in the Banff Road area in Rusholme, where houses have been repeatedly searched.
“We have had police officers conducting house-to-house inquiries, but we are still not satisfied why Abedi went there, and it’s vital we understand exactly where he went there and who he spoke to in these final days before the attack,” said DCI Russ Jackson, head of the north-west counter-terrorism unit.
