‘He said the same things after the terrorist attack in Manchester on May 22 when it didn’t seem to worry him that children were killed because ‘it’s what they deserve and nobody complains about the children of Syria’.



‘He went on to say ‘here something worse is going to happen’. He also showed his interest in weapons, asking ‘would you known how to make a bomb?”

Twenty two people were killed in the suicide bombing after an Ariana Grande concert, including a number of children – with the youngest victim just eight years old.

El Omari was arrested at a flat in Madrid along with his 32-year-old cousin and a 37-year-old friend, who are accused of joining Isis.

Police said they seized material including a manual for suicide bombers.

It is believed investigators uncovered the sick comments through tapping his phone and studying his conversations online.
