The original plan of Brussels attackers was to strike France again, but they decided in a hurry to launch attacks in the Belgian capital, the Belgian federal prosecutor confirmed Sunday.
"According to several elements of the investigation, the goal of the terrorist group was to strike again France and it's taken aback because the investigation strode, so they finally decided in the emergency to hit Brussels," said the prosecutor in a statement.
According to the Belgian broadcaster RTBF, it is Mohamed Abrini, arrested Friday in Brussels, himself that would have made these statements to investigators.
"The instruction judge specialized in terrorism has placed Mohamed Abrini under arrest in the file relating to the attacks of Brussels and Zaventem," said the prosecutor.
He is charged with participating in "a terrorist group, terrorist murders and attempted terrorist murder", the statement said.
Abrini confessed to being "the man in the hat", the third member of the group that attacked the Brussels airport on March 22, confirmed Saturday night the prosecutor.
