The Ariana Grande Manchester concert bomber reportedly put a call across to his mother hours before killing many people.
Salman Abedi
It has been revealed that the terrorist behind the Manchester bombing phoned his mother and said ‘forgive me’ before carrying out the attack.
According to Metro UK, suicide bomber Salman Abedi made the call to Samia Tabbal hours before killing 22 people at Manchester Arena, a Libyan anti-terror official has said.
Special Deterrent Force spokesman Ahmed bin Salem said that the 22-year-old and three of his siblings in Libya were summoned for questioning.
Mr Bin Salem said Ms Tabbal also told interrogators her son left Libya for England just four days before carrying out the cowardly attack.
He added that Libyan investigators believe ‘the bomber acted alone’ based on comments from his younger brother Hashem Abedi, who has been arrested in Libya.
His father Ramadan Abedi was also arrested in Libya, while his other brother Ismail Abedi was arrested in the UK.
It was previously claimed that the terrorist called his brother in Libya and asked Ms Tabbal to call him back.
It has since emerged that Abedi was known to security services and his risk to the public was listed as ‘subject to review’ ahead of the attack.
Abedi’s sister has said he ‘wanted revenge’ for western military strikes in the Middle East.
