Manchester Arena bombing survivors have filed legal action against a conspiracy theorist who claimed the attack was faked.

Martin and Eve Hibbert were left with severe disabilities after the 2017 attack and are suing author Richard D Hall for defamation and harassment.

UK correspondent Gavin Grey says this conspiracy theorist had been spying on Martin and Eve, as well as several other victims to see if their reported injuries were true.

Gavin Grey says says this legal action would be the first of its kind in the UK, and it echoes the lawsuit filed against Alex Jones.
