MOSCOW (Sputnik) — Mohamed Abrini, suspected of being involved in November 2015 attacks in Paris, admitted he was the third man wearing a hat and accompanying the terrorists at Brussels airport on March 22, the Belgian federal prosecutor announced Saturday.
"He was shown the results of various expertise and admitted his presence… He said he had thrown his jacket in a trash can and then sold his hat," Le Soir newspaper cited the prosecutor’s statement as saying.
In late March, two suicide blasts ripped through the departure hall of the airport in the northeastern municipality of Zaventem while another explosion hit the Maelbeek metro station near the headquarters of the EU institutions in Brussels, killing over 30 people and injuring at least 300.
