(Brussels Times) Today (Thursday) is the last day of the Brussels terror attacks trial before the jury will deliberate whether the accused men are guilty and on what counts.
In early December, the trial on the 2016 terror attacks at Brussels Airport in Zaventem and Maelbeek metro station began. Now, seven months later, the jury is finally due to deliberate.
“It has been seven gruelling months for the victims of the attacks and their relatives,” Philippe Vansteenkiste, president of victims’ organisation V-Europe, told Bruzz. “The trial is finally reaching a final stage, which means that they will soon be able to move on with their lives. For some, the process has helped them to cope, for others less so.”
