(BBC) The public inquiry into the Manchester Arena terror attack has begun.
The hearing comes more than three years after Salman Abedi set off a bomb as people left a concert on 22 May 2017, killing himself and 22 others.
It was due to start in June, but was delayed by the trial of Abedi’s brother Hashem, who was jailed for at least 55 years for 22 murders on 20 August.
The inquiry is being held at Manchester Magistrates’ Court, less than a mile away from where the bombing happened.
The Manchester Arena inquiry was established on 22 October 2019 by Home Secretary Priti Patel with the aim of investigating the victims’ deaths.
