CHEI....OYIBO TOO MUCH ABEG.....Bomber 'was pictured wearing backpack at Manchester's Arndale Centre three days before atrocity' ALSO bomber's father and brothers have been arrested.

hehehehe.....CCTV appears to show suicide bomber Salman Abedi with a backpack similar to the one used to conceal the explosives he used to kill 22 people on Monday night.

Video taken in Manchester's Arndale Centre allegedly shows the 22-year-old shopping just three days before he blew himself up after an Ariana Grande concert.  The thin man, wearing trainers and a baseball cap, was caught on camera in the centre on Friday night, reports Sky News.

Salman Abedi (inset) killed 22 people and injured at least 119 more when he detonated a bomb at Manchester Arena on Monday night as children were piling out of the venue having watched Ariana Grande. But this afternoon the father of the attacker, Ramadan Abedi (right), said: 'We don't believe in killing innocents. This is not us.'

Lounging on the beach in Libya with friends and hanging out with his mates in Manchester, this is Salman Abedi (circled) as a teenage boy before he became a suicide bomber. There is a no suggestion any of the friends he is pictured with have been involved in any wrong doing

He said he had spoken to his 22-year-old son five days ago and that he sounded 'normal' and was getting ready to visit Saudi Arabia. Earlier, pictures emerged showing Abedi lounging on the beach in Libya with friends and hanging out with his mates in Manchester as a teenager. There is no suggestion any of the people he was pictured with have been involved in any wrongdoing.

His father, Ramadan, was arrested by masked gunmen in Tripoli this evening while recording TV interviews in the country.

Earlier he had claimed his son seemed 'normal' when they last spoke five days ago and insisted: 'We don't believe in killing innocents.'   

 Abedi's younger brother Hashem has also been arrested in Tripoli, Libya, on suspicion of having links to the ISIS who claimed responsibility for Monday night's atrocity.

He was 'aware of all the details' of his plans, a Libyan security force said. Hashem had been 'under surveillance for a month and a half' and 'investigation teams supplied intelligence that he was planning a terrorist attack in the capital Tripoli', the Deterrence Force said on its Facebook page.

Salman's older brother Ismail, 23, was arrested yesterday in Chorlton, south Manchester. He is still being quizzed by police, who are probing the family's links to a terror network.

Three more men have been arrested in Manchester in connection with the attack that left at least 22 people dead at Manchester Arena.  

Greater Manchester Police said the arrests were made in the south of the city, where a 23-year-old suspect was arrested in connection with Salman Abedi's bombing on Tuesday.

The police spokesperson said,

“three police warrants were executed in south Manchester in connection to the ongoing investigation'.

Investigators are working to establish whether the 22-year-old acted alone or was part of a wider terrorist network, raiding several properties across Manchester.
