hashem abedi was in libya by then.ury decided the brothers had worked together, driving around manchester, ordering and storing chemicals and shrapnel for the bomb, so hashem abedi was just as guilty as his brother. ahmed grew up with the brothers in manchester and told me he still cannot believe what they did. they took 22 lives. what is hashem going to do now? hasem will sit in a cell and say, "why is this happening? why did i take this decision?" it will be for the parole board to decide in many decades' time whether hashem abedi should ever be released. and from outside the old bailey, daniel explained that this ruling brings to a close the criminal justice chapter of this case. the bereaved families will now be turning their minds to the next chapter of this, which is the public enquiry into the deaths, and i'm joined now by figen murray, who you saw in my report, and her husband, stuart. do you feel a sense of relief that you now know what is going to happen to hashem abedi and he can't be released for 55 years?

hashem abedi chose to stay in the cells in the basement.him into the courtroom. he was convicted of murdering 22 people and attempting to murder many more. in march, a jury decided hashem abedi was just as guilty of the murders as his brother salman, who detonated the bomb. among those the brothers killed was kelly brewster. tearfully, her sister, claire booth, told thejudge they were at the concert together but that after the bomb, she had to help another member of their group was badly injured. she said, "i struggle with feelings of guilt that i had no option but to leave kelly to die alone." a teenage couple, liam curry and chloe rutherford, were also killed. their families had hoped they would marry and have children. liam's mother caroline said, "you took his future, my future, my family's future. all we have now is heartbreak and dreams of what if." chloe's mum lisa said... "there's always that empty chair where she should be." martyn hett‘s mother explained that she still can't go to sleep before 10:31pm, the time the bomb went off.

hashem abedi is of course facing a life sentence for automatic for 22 counts of murder, so this courtesent, because he was under 21 at the time of the murders, he can't get a whole life order, that means he will never be released from prison, so this is all about how many decades the spends in prison before he is considered for release. we have had an incredibly emotional morning in court. relatives of those who were killed telling the judge how it has affected their life. for example we heard from claire booth who was at the concert that night, her sister kelly brewster was killed and her daughter was very badly injured, spending ten weeks in hospital. she told the judge she has been struggling with feelings of guilt because she had to abandon her sister to look after her daughter. she said, i struggle with feelings of guilt, but i had no option but to leave kelly to die alone. we also heard from the mothers of liam curry and chloe rutherford the teenage sweethearts. liam's mother said, all we have now is heartbreaking dreams of water. chloe rutherford's mother lisa told thejudge, of
