British police has “got hold of a large part” of the network linked to the suicide bomb attack at a pop concert in Manchester that killed 22 people, the country’s counter-terrorism police chief announced on Friday.
Mark Rowley, Assistant Commissioner for Specialist Operations in the Metropolitan Police Service, said detectives had made “immense progress” in the investigation, but warned there were still “important lines of inquiry” to pursue.
“Further arrests are likely, although police believe they have got hold of a large part of the network,” Rowley said.
He said police have reviewed security at more than 1,300 events across the UK and urged public not to change any plan and “go out as you planned and enjoy yourselves”.
