Greater Manchester Police admit they failed to act on critical evidence from the phones of synagogue attacker Jihad al-Shamie, whose devices revealed an extremist mindset but were never properly examined before the October 2025 attack. Chief Constable Sir Stephen Watson apologized for the missed opportunity, calling it a failure that added to victims’ pain, as al-Shamie’s co-conspirator, Mohammad Bashir, received a life sentence for planning the attack. An internal review confirms phones seized in prior arrests held vital clues, and the Independent Office for Police Conduct is now investigating the force’s prior handling of the case.
