(Brussels Times) A notorious terrorism convict is among seven suspects arrested Monday for the 42-day-long abduction of a Limburg teen whose family has been convicted for drug-related crimes.
Officials on Tuesday said that Khalid Bouloudo, twice convicted for terrorism, is one of the seven men arrested after police rescued … the 13-year-old, kidnapped from his Genk family home in late April.
In 2006, Bouloudo was handed a 5-year prison sentence after he was identified as a key figure in the creation of a Belgian division of Moroccan terror cell GICM, linked to the 2003 and 2004 bombings of Casablanca and Madrid, respectively.
