Salah Abdeslam 'refused to blow himself up', says brother
2016-04-03
How noble of him, to be sure. Of course, there are all those killed by the other suicide bombers he'd gotten supplies and such for, so he'll get some credit from Allah toward his own mansion in Paradise full of male and female virgins when the time comes...
[FRANCE24] The suspected ringleader of the Gay Paree attacks, Salah Abdeslam, decided not to blow himself up during the wave of killings in the French capital last year, his brother said on Friday.

Mohammed Abdeslam said his brother "voluntarily chose not to blow himself up" along with the other Islamic State

He is believed to have acted as a logistics coordinator and told Sherlocks he was meant to carry out a suicide kaboom at the Stade de La Belle France stadium, but backed out.

Four days after he was arrested, the Belgian capital was struck by IS bombings at the airport and a metro station carried out by jihadists with links to the Gay Paree attacks cell.

The 26-year-old, who is about to be extradited to La Belle France, apparently told his brother he wants to cooperate with Sherlocks, but denied any role in the Brussels bombings.
