A man arrested on suspicion of terrorism offences following the Manchester synagogue attack has been re-arrested at the city's airport.
Two people were killed when Jihad Al-Shamie, 35, carried out the car and knife attack at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue on 2 October.
Counter Terrorism Policing North West said the 30-year-old man was originally arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism.
The force said he had been re-arrested earlier at Manchester Airport on suspicion of failing to disclose information contrary to Section 38B of the Terrorism Act 2000. He has since been released on bail with conditions.
According to legislation, the Act applies where a person has information which he knows or believes might be of material assistance in preventing terrorism, and does not disclose it "as soon as reasonably practicable".
The force added it "does not believe there is any ongoing threat to the public following the incident last week".
Six people were held in the aftermath of the attack, with two - a man and a woman - arrested in the hours afterwards and then released on Sunday evening.
The following day, detectives said they had been given extra time to question the remaining four, who were also detained on "suspicion of commission, preparation and instigation of acts of terrorism".
On Wednesday, Greater Manchester Police said they too were set to be released but that "did not mean the investigation was complete".
Also on Wednesday, the force revealed Al-Shamie made a 999 call in which he pledged allegiance to the group calling itself Islamic State.
Melvin Cravitz, 66, and 53-year-old Adrian Daulby died in the attack on Middleton Road in Crumpsall.
Mr Daulby suffered a gunshot wound after armed police officers responded to the incident and shot Al-Shamie dead.
A police bullet also struck another man, Yoni Finlay, who is recovering in hospital after surgery.
