Speaking from Libyan capital Tripol, Ramadan Abedi said: “We don’t believe in killing innocents. This is not us.”

He said the 22-year-old sounded “normal” when the pair spoke five days ago and claims he was preparing to visit Saudi Arabia.

He also confirmed UK police have arrested his other son.

Salman Abedi killed 22 people when he detonated a suspected nail bomb after a concert at Manchester Arena on Monday night.

His youngest victim was an eight-year-old girl, while a serving police officer was also among the dead.

Ramadan Abedi fled Tripoli in 1993 after Moammar Gadhafi’s security authorities issued an arrest warrant and eventually sought political asylum in Britain before settling in Manchester.

He is the administrative manager of the Central Security force in Tripoli.

His son is believed to have travelled to Syria and become radicalised before returning to the UK to cause carnage at a gig in the city where he was born.

The son of Libyan parents, he is thought to have come back to Britain from Libya just days before the massacre.

Born and raised in Manchester, Abedi grew up in a Muslim household but matured into a university dropout with an appetite for bloodshed.

He was registered as living at Elsmore Road as recently as last year, where police raided a downstairs red-bricked semi-detached property on Tuesday.
