A Belgian court must acquit Paris attacks suspect Salah Abdeslam over a shootout with police because of a legal language mix-up between Dutch and French, his defence lawyer said Thursday. Abdeslam, 28, refused to come to court in Brussels on Thursday, after accusing judges on the first day of the trial on Monday of being anti-Muslim and proclaiming he would only put his "trust in Allah". In Abdeslam's absence, lawyer Sven Mary sought the case's dismissal over a technicality in how the judges were named to investigate the gunbattle in Brussels in March 2016, in which three police offers were wounded. "It's a very Belgian story," said Mary, explaining that the top counter-terror judge should have issued the document naming the judges in Dutch, and not in French, because he serves in a Dutch-speaking court in Brussels. The "whole case" against Abdeslam and his Tunisian co-defendant, Sofiane Ayari, "must be thrown out," Mary said. Belgium's deep divisions between Dutch and French-speakers were often cited as a factor in the country's widely criticised investigations into the cell behind attacks in 2015 in Paris and 2016 in Brussels. Mary also said the case has been "pollute, ...ادامه مطلب

Jawad Bendaoud, the man who housed two of the perpetrators of the November 13, 2015 attacks in Paris, appeared in court on Wednesday on charges of harbouring terrorists. Bendaoud rented his apartment north of the French capital to Abdelhamid Abaaoud -- the senior Islamic State (IS) group militant suspected of coordinating the attacks that killed 130 people -- and his accomplice Chakib Akrouh. The French press dubbed him the "landlord of Daesh", referring to the IS group by another acronym. The Paris Criminal Court will determine whether 31-year-old Bendaoud, himself a convicted killer, was unaware of their involvement when he hosted the November 13 attackers or if he was an accomplice. If convicted, he faces six years in prison. The trial is expected to last for three weeks, and has sparked a feeding frenzy among the press and lit up social media networks. Not only is this the first trial in connection to the Paris attacks, but the defendant became, through his own stumbling, an object of widespread ridicule. 'A figure of ridicule': How Jawad Bendaoud became an inteet sensation On Novemb, ...ادامه مطلب
