(Brussels Times) Four terrorist suspects have seen their pre-trial detention extended by a Brussels trial court as part of the investigation into the 2015 Paris attacks, federal prosecutors announced Thursday.
Prosecutors said the council chamber of Brussels ordered the detention of Ossama Krayem, Sofien Ayari and Mohamed Abrini to be prolonged by two months, and by one month for the third detainee, named as Adis A.
All four men are suspected of links with the terror cell which orchestrated the terrorist attacks that struck Paris and Brussels in less than a year.
Both Krayem and Abrini took part in the 2016 Brussels attacks, in which coordinated bomb attacks at Brussels Airport and the Maelbeek metro station killed 32 civilians and left hundreds more injured.
