'Mindset not assisted by mosque environment'

"If somebody is going off track, it is an obligation of the Muslim community... to report it to the authorities" says a member of the Didsbury Mosque where it is thought the Manchester Arena attack suspect Salman Abedi also attended.

Giving only his first name, Saleem who runs an interfaith group, also told Martha Kearney that the mosque environment promotes peace and community cohesion.

Saleem did not know Salman Abedi but Abedi's father used to do the call to prayer at the mosque.
