Suspects still under investigation four months after police uncover suspected Wigan bomb factory

The suspects – aged between 20 and 25 – were detained after police raided a house in Vulcan Road, Marsh Green, on February 26.

Residents were evacuated, streets sealed off and a bomb disposal unit called in after a number of suspicious chemicals were recovered.

Eventually it was concluded that the substances did not present an immediate risk and people were allowed home.

It was also stated at the time that the incident did not pose a wider risk to the community.

A Greater Manchester Police spokeswoman confirmed today that all three remain under investigation as inquiries continue.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact police on 0161 856 7094 or Live Chat quoting incident 907 of 26/02/22.
