Manchester attacker not acting alone, feels Rudd

London, May 24 (IBNS): England Home Secretary Amber Rudd feels that the person who carried out a suicide attack in Manchester was "likely" to have not acted alone.

Rudd was quoted as saying by BBC: "It was more sophisticated than some of the attacks we've seen before, and it seems likely - possible - that he wasn't doing this on his own."

British PM Theresa May gave a statement following the second COBR meeting on the Manchester attack and announced the threat level has been raised to critical.

Greater Manchester Police confirmed  the perpetrator was Salman Ramadan Abedi, a 22-year-old who was born and brought up in Britain.

The incident took place on Monday night, following the conclusion of American singer Ariana Grande's pop concert.

Meanwhile, the suicide attack also prompted May to postpone her general election campaigning, as flags in official places were flown at half mast.

The incident also invited heavy criticism from other world leaders.

The attack has claimed over 20 lives.
