After seven months of hearing, the defendants in the November 13 trial are questioned one last time regarding the hours and months that followed the attacks and the escapes of several of them. From this Tuesday, April 12, the court will question Mohammed Amri and Hamza Attou, who recovered Salah Abdeslam in Paris, and a third, Ali Oulkadi, who hid him in the Belgian capital.
On the night of November 13 to 14, 2015, Mohamed Amri and Hamza Attou left Brussels in the direction of Paris for “troubleshoot“they say, Salah Abdeslam, a neighborhood friend, held on the spot as a result”from an accident“. This is the version that “their friend” will give by telephone, still affirm the two defendants today.
Quickly arrested the day following the attacks, the two men will first try to get out of it by pretending to ignore everything regarding their passenger’s involvement in the attacks, Hamza Attou even going so far as to mention the presence of a “hitchhiker who jumped into their car at a toll boothwithout asking them for permission.
This version, no more than that of Mohamed Amri, initially denying having mentioned the attacks with Salah Abdeslam during this trip to Paris, did not resist for a long time in the face of the contradictions that appeared and the accumulation of clues collected following the attacks. First, these documents found in the rental car near the Bataclan, in which the Abdeslam brothers voluntarily signed their participation like the Kouachi following the attack on Charlie Hebdo.
