(National-UAE) A Belgian prosecutor on Tuesday asked a jury to sentence French terrorist Salah Abdeslam to life in prison for his role in ISIS-claimed suicide attacks against Brussels that killed 35 people and wounded hundreds.
“After terrorising France, he decided to continue serving his terrorist group and continue his war in Belgium with the desire to kill innocent and unknown victims,” said prosecutor Paule Somers.
Abdeslam was sentenced in June 2022 to life in prison without parole by a French judge for co-organising the November 2015 Paris attacks that killed 130 people.
Like Abdeslam, a number of members of the same ISIS cell that planned the Paris and Brussels attacks were tried separately in both countries.
