The cowardly suicide bomber who killed 22 innocent victims and maimed 59 more in a sickening terror attack at Manchester Arena has been named as Salman Abedi.

The 22-year-old, who was born in Manchester and grew up in the area alongside his three brothers, was behind the deadly bomb that killed victims as young as eight.

Cops revealed the identity of the lone wolf attacker, of Libyan descent, after raiding his house in Fallowfield today.
