“I am not a killer”, says Salah Abdeslam

At the trial of the November 13 attacks, Salah Abdeslam, the only surviving member of the commando, continued to minimize his involvement in the attacks. “‘Public opinion says that I was with a Kalashnikov shooting on the terraces, at the Bataclan killing people, you know the truth is the opposite’, he said. He adds “I’ve made mistakes, but I’m not a killer”reports journalist Hugo Puffeney, live from the special assize court in Paris, Monday, June 27.

“Before him, all the other defendants followed one another, almost all of them had a word for the victims, for their lawyers. But the most significant are perhaps the three defendants who appear free during this trial”, explains Hugo Puffeney. Thus, Abdellah Chouaa denies being a terrorist and implores the court, while Ali Oulkadi failed to explain to his children why he had been placed in detention. The verdict is expected on Wednesday, June 29.
