European Agencies Hunting 8 Suspects Linked to Brussels, Paris Attacks
Europe’s security agencies are hunting for at least eight suspects believed to have assisted with the Islamist terror attacks in Paris and Brussels, Die Welt am Sonntag newspaper reported.
Citing security sources, the paper said the suspects, most of whom are French and Belgian citizens, are believed to be either in Syria or on the run in Europe.
Die Welt said the suspects had been in contact with Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the presumed ringleader of the Paris terror attacks who was killed by French police in a shootout on Nov. 18, and Salah Abdeslam, the prime surviving suspect of the Paris terror attacks who was captured in Brussels earlier this month.
Germany’s Federal Criminal Police Office (BKA) is involved in the manhunt, according to Die Welt. The BKA declined to comment.
