Andrew Roussos, father to victim Saffie Roussos, said that the apology from MI5 came too late, and he wishes he could have his daughter back.
It identified that the"principal missed opportunity" was two pieces of intelligence received by MI5 in the months prior to the attack, which were assessed to relate to"non-terrorist criminal activity" on the part of Abedi, who returned to the UK from Libya four days before the bombing.Addressing this, Mr Roussos said:"In 2017 we were at the highest alert and everybody was warned of an attack in this country.
"So if they would have learnt lessons they wouldn't have allowed Abedi to walk into that arena," he said.Please use Chrome browser for a more accessible video playerpublic apology
