The brother of the Manchester Arena bomber was sentenced to 55 years for his role in the terror attack outside an Ariana Grande concert
.The brother of the Manchester Arena suicide bomber was sentenced to at least 55 years in prison for his role inHashem Abedi, the younger brother of suicide bomber Salman Abedi, was previously convicted of 22 counts of murder for helping to plan the bombing, including ordering and stockpiling the materials used to create the explosive device. Manchester-born Hashem fled to Libya prior to the attack but was extradited back to the U.K. to face trial.
Baker added that although Abedi was “just as guilty” as his brother and deserved life in prison because Abedi was under 21 years old at the time of the attack, by law Baker could only give him a minimum 55-year sentence; at that point, Abedi could be considered for parole, but more likely Abedi “may never be released.”
