He said the Justice Department should “launch a complete review of this matter, and if appropriate, the culprit should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”

The BBC on Thursday reported that Manchester police would stop sharing intelligence with their U.S. counterparts after a series of leaks to American media outlets.
