Twenty suspects face trial for deadly 2015 Paris attacks
2019-11-30
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] French prosecutors called Friday for 20 suspects to go on trial over the massacre of 130 people by jacket wallahs and button men in Gay Paree four years ago.

In a 562-page indictment, the office of the national anti-terror prosecutor (PNAT) charged 14 people currently in prison or under judicial supervision, including Salah Abdeslam, the sole surviving suspected participant in the attacks.

Six others are currently targeted by arrest warrants, including Fabien and Jean-Michel Clain, notorious propagandists for ISIS, which grabbed credit for the killings.

An ISIS online magazine claimed in March that the two brothers were killed in coalition Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s in Syria earlier this year.

The five judges overseeing investigations that wrapped up last month, and who have worked with colleagues in Austria, Germany, Greece and Bulgaria, will now decide when to hold the trial, expected in Gay Paree during 2021.

The PNAT said 1,740 civil plaintiffs had joined the case against the suspected organizers of one of the deadliest attacks in French history.

A total of 130 people died in the November 15, 2015, assaults by 10 heavily armed button men who attacked during a football match at the national stadium outside Gay Paree, and then bars and restaurants in the capital as well as the Bataclan concert hall.

All detonated their explosive vests or were killed by police except Abdeslam, who was arrested in Belgium four months later.

He has refused to cooperate with Sherlocks and remains in solitary confinement.

The other suspects facing trial have been charged with helping to organize or finance the attacks, or helping the button men to flee.

They include Oussama Atar,
...also known as Abou Ahmad, he comes out of a typical jihadi clan — younger brother Yassine Atar was arrested in 2017 as local emir for the team that did the 2015 Paris and Brussels attacks, while cousins Ibrahim and Khalid Bakraoui kaboomed themselves in Zaventem airport and the Brussels Maalbeek metro station in 2016, and cousins Moustapha and Jawad Benhattal were arrested for planning to kaboom a soccer match in Belgium...
a Belgian-Moroccan citizen who is thought to have helped orchestrate the attack from Raqqa, the former capital of the ISIS’ so-called "caliphate" in Syria.

Atar was reportedly killed in early 2018, but his death has not been officially confirmed.

Since 2015, La Belle France has been struck by a wave of murderous Moslem terror strikes that have claimed the lives of over 250 people.

The same murderous Moslem cell blamed for the Gay Paree attacks is also believed to have struck the airport and metro system of Brussels in March 2016, killing 32 people.
