Paris attack suspect linked to Isil murder

-

A suspect in the Paris and Brussels terror attacks has been identified by Belgian police as having been among a group of Islamic State extremists who burned a Jordanian pilot alive in a cage.

Osama Krayem, a Swede of Syrian origin, has been held in Belgium since 2016 and could face war crimes charges over the murder of Maaz al-kassasbeh. Kassasbeh’s death was filmed and put online after his plane came down in Is-held Syria in 2014.

Krayem is suspected to have played a key role in the cell behind the Paris and Brussels bombings two years ago.
