Anti-terror police investigating a suicide bombing in Syria that they believe to have been carried out by a British man are searching a house in Crawley.
The attack happened last week on a prison in the city of Aleppo and resulted in some of its inmates escaping.
Justina Beeken, The Chief Inspector from Sussex Police said that there has been no formal identification of the man and that they cannot yet confirm where he is from or who he is. She added that Sussex Police were working closely with the South East Counter Terrorism Unit and assisting them with all their inquiries.
It’s believed that this is the first suicide bombing in Syria to be carried out by a Briton.
