New CCTV Of Suspected Paris Attacker Abdeslam

Salah Abdeslam is believed to have played a key logistical role in the 13 November attacks in which 130 people were killed.

A French TV station has released security footage it says is of the Paris attacks prime suspect Salah Abdeslam.

Abdeslam, a native of Brussels, is believed to have played a key logistical role in the 13 November attacks in which 130 people were killed. His older brother Brahim was a suicide bomber.

Responsibility for the attacks was claimed by extremists from the so-called Islamic State.

The new pictures were taken at around 9.45am on 14 November and show Abdeslam with his friend Hamza Attou at a petrol station near the Belgian border.

Police have already said that Abdeslam called two friends Mohammed Amri and Hamza Attou in Brussels earlier that morning to ask if they could collect him from the French capital and bring him back to Brussels.

The three men were stopped near the border by French police but then released, as Abdeslam had not yet been connected to the French attacks.

Abdeslam, 26, arrived in Brussels later that day, was met by someone else and then police admit they “lost him”.

Amri and Attou were arrested and face terror charges but Abdeslam is now the subject of an international manhunt.

Belgian police have arrested 10 people as part of their investigation into the attacks.
