Manchester Arena attack survivor demands ‘truth’ from MI5

Martin Hibbert, who was paralysed in attack, speaks out before inquiry publishes final report about atrocity

A man left paralysed by the Manchester Arena attack has said he wants the truth and not “excuses” from MI5, as it faces damning criticism from an inquiry into the atrocity.

Martin Hibbert said he wanted to know “why it happened and how it happened” when the inquiry publishes its long-anticipated final report about the blast on Thursday.
