SALAH ABDESALAM REQUESTS TO BE TRANSFERRD TO FRANCE FOR TRIAL
Lead suspect in the November Paris attacks who's also suspected to have something to do with the Brussels attacks wants to be transferred to France to face charges there as soon as possible. According to The Guardian, Abdesalam had earlier made it known through his lawyer that he would oppose moves by France to obtain his extradition by that doesn't seem to be the case right now. Below is the report...
Just after his arrest, Abdeslam had made clear through his lawyer that he would oppose moves by France to obtain his extradition quickly. But that stance has changed, and now he apparently wants to transfer to France to “explain himself”. His lawyer said: “Salah Abdeslam told me that he wishes to leave for France as soon as possible. I will ask the investigating magistrate not to oppose his departure.”
Asked why, he said: “The most important part of the file is in France. His explanations have to go there.”
Mary had told Europe 1 radio on Wednesday night that Abdeslam had not agreed to speak to investigators who visited him on Tuesday after the Brussels attacks. Mary said this was perhaps because Abdeslam wanted to speak to his lawyer first. Mary said he did not want Abdeslam to close up or withdraw from speaking.
Abdeslam had been due in court in Brussels on 31 March to face a European arrest warrant issued by France. This warrant is a procedure reserved for EU member states that speeds up the traditional extradition process by preventing government authorities from blocking any transfer. The hearing has now been postponed until 7 April.
Asked whether Abdeslam, French-born though raised in Brussels, was still helping police investigators, Mary declined to comment, citing client confidentiality.
The lawyer had said on Monday, before the Brussels attacks, that Abdeslam was collaborating and communicating, and that he was “worth his weight in gold” for the investigation.
The Belgian daily Le Soir reported that Mary was assaulted in the street on Tuesday by someone who criticised him for defending a terrorist.
The lawyer told the paper he had shut his office to ensure the safety of his colleagues but he had not been personally placed under any police protection and did not want to be.

BRUSSELS TERROR ATTACKS: ONE BRITON DEAD
This morning , U.K Prime Minister David Cameron at a security meeting said four Britons had been injured and one more missing in the Brussels attacks. See what he said below...
We are concerned about one missing British national and we are in close contact with the Belgian authorities. We are aware of four British nationals who were injured in the attacks — three are being treated in hospital, one has already been discharged. Our embassy staff are working to assist all British nationals affected,” Cameron said.
“In terms of travel advice, we continue to advise people to follow the advice of the Belgian authorities. Therefore we are no longer advising against travel to Brussels. British nationals in Belgium should remain alert and vigilant, stay away from crowded places, and follow the instructions of the Belgian authorities.
“Here in the UK, we stepped up the security presence at a number of locations across the country yesterday and we will maintain this in the coming days. The national threat level remains at SEVERE (an attack is highly likely) and the public are advised to be ‘alert but not alarmed’.
He added that the U.K government will observe a minute silence by 11 a.m he says
