Terrorist Involved in Manchester Bomber’s Radicalization Released from Prison
Abdalraouf Abdallah, a childhood friend of Manchester Arena bomber Salman Abedi, has been released from prison after serving his full sentence. Despite a September Parole Board denial citing his high risk to the public and propensity for radicalizing others, his release was mandated upon sentence expiration. The Manchester Arena Inquiry implicated Abdallah in Abedi’s radicalization, though not in the attack itself. While participating in deradicalization programs, assessments deemed him a continued high risk due to persistent extremist views.
