Martin Hibbert and daughter Eve were left with life-changing injuries by the Manchester Arena attack.

They were awarded 45,000 in damages in October after suing a former TV producer turned conspiracy theorist who claimed in online films that the attack was staged.

In videos viewed tens of thousands of times, Richard Hall described the Arena bomb as a “well-organised and well-planned fake terrorist incident involving over 100 enlisted participants or actors” and that it involved “fabricated deaths”.
