Suicide bomber pictured moments before Manchester Arena terror attack
Police issued CCTV stills of Salman Abedi, bespectacled and casually clothed, in a plea for information about his movements between May 18 and the attack.
A matter of hours after he was captured on camera, the 22-year-old was dead, having inflicted an outrage on a pop concert attended predominantly by young girls.

Hide AdA spokesman for Greater Manchester Police said: "We are gathering a detailed picture of Abedi as the invesitgation develops, and now need people to tell us if they have any information on his movements from May 18, when he returned to the UK, through to Monday night.
"The investigation is making good progress and we know one of the last places Abedi went was a city centre flat and from there he left to make his way to Manchester Arena.
"The flat is a highly relevant location which we believe may be the final assembly point for the device."
This comes after Manchester bombing victim Georgina Callander's family hit out at the Government over her death, saying it must 'open its eyes' or more parents will lose children to terror.
