| [FRANCE24] A main suspect in the investigation into the Brussels bombings has also been charged with participation in the Gay Paree attacks four months earlier, Belgian federal prosecutors said on Wednesday. Osama Krayem, who was nabbed Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! in Brussels earlier this month, might have been present in different safehouses used by the bad boy attackers, such as a suspected bomb factory raided in December, prosecutors said. "He has been charged with terrorist murder and participation in the activities of a terrorist group," prosecutors said in a statement. Krayem, a Swedish national, had been previously linked to the attacks in Gay Paree after it emerged that he had been checked by police in October near the southern German city of Ulm in a car rented by Salah Abedelslam, a key suspect in the investigation. Belgian prosecutors also believe Krayem is the man seen with Brussels bomber Khalid El Bakraoui shortly before he went kaboom!at a metro station, and was responsible for buying the bags used to transport the explosives. He was charged with terrorist murder over the Brussels bombings shortly after his arrest on April 8. |
