A man arrested in connection with the terrorist attack at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue will remain in police custody for further questioning after a court approved an extension.
Greater Manchester Police have confirmed that a warrant of further detention has been granted for the 31 year old man arrested as part of the investigation into the terrorist attack at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue.
