(BBC) The brother of the Manchester Arena bomber will be arrested and brought to give evidence to the attack inquiry if he returns to the UK, a judge has said.
Ismail Abedi had been ordered to attend the Manchester Arena inquiry in October but flew out of the UK beforehand.
The families of those killed said the 28-year-old was a “coward” for fleeing.
At Manchester Civil Justice Centre, inquiry chairman Sir John Saunders was granted permission to issue a bench warrant against Mr Abedi.
A bench warrant is issued by a judge directing that a person be apprehended when they have violated the rules of the court.
