Stuttgart: A Bosnian man was arrested from Germany in connection with the 2015 Paris attack and will be extraditing him to Belgium.
The German federal police official and Dresden prosecutors said in a joint statement that the 39-year-old suspect was apprehended on the night of 19 June on a European arrest warrant issued by Belgian authorities.
He is accused of “abetting a terrorist organisation linked to the terror attacks, including on the Bataclan concert hall, on 13 November 2015 in Paris”.
German authorities said he had been targeted in a separate investigation into two Bosnian citizens suspected to have violated a military weapons control law.
They said a continuing investigation led to the whereabouts of the suspect, who was not named.
