Paris attacks prime suspect tells court he is ‘a soldier of Islamic State’
The Metro says the prime suspect in the Paris terror attacks which left 130 people dead and hundreds more injured told a court that he is ‘a soldier of Islamic State’.
Salah Abdeslam, 31, is believed to be the only surviving member of the terror cell which carried out three co-ordinated gun and bomb attacks in the French capital in November 2015.
France’s biggest ever criminal trial began under tight security on Wednesday, with 14 defendants present in a secure custom-built complex embedded in the Palais de Justice. Six others are being tried in their absence.
