Paris Attacks: Abdeslam, the only suspect still alive, refuses to talk

Firstpost  

The last known survivor of the team that carried out last November’s Paris attacks refused to talk during questioning today by anti-terror judges, and the session ended abruptly. Paris: The last known survivor of the team that carried out last November’s Paris attacks refused to talk during questioning on Friday by anti-terror judges, and the session ended abruptly. He is the only suspect still alive believed to have played a direct role in the 13 November bloodshed at a concert hall, stadium and Parisian cafes, which killed 130 people. Authorities and families of attack victims had hoped Abdeslam’s testimony will shed light on how IS plotted the attacks, solve mysteries that remain about what exactly happened on 13 November, and identify others who might have been involved, or support networks still hiding in the shadows.
