“Madam President, since Wednesday, I have not introduced myself,” he said to Laurence Massart. Ibrahim Farisi then made confused remarks, claiming to have been treated “outside” as an “undocumented person” and pointing to an injury to his wrist which, according to him, could have killed him. “I’m afraid to come here, I no longer feel safe,” he said, asking to have access to the web radio made available to victims and their lawyers by the courts, in order to follow the remote trial.
After reminding him that this tool was not intended for him, the president asked the one who worked as a mediator at the CPAS in Anderlecht to sit down. “It’s therapy here, we’re talking. So let me talk,” retorted the accused. “No, it’s a trial,” replied his interlocutor.
Ibrahim Farisi sat down briefly, not without manhandling his microphone. When he wanted to speak again, the president ordered his expulsion. This was not done without difficulty, the accused opposing it.
His brother Smail Farisi, who also appears free, had left the hearing shortly before, visibly embarrassed.
The trial continued in the absence also of Ali El Haddad Asufi, apparently ill, and Osama Krayem, who, as usual, asked to return to the cell phone.
Ibrahim Farisi is the only one of the ten defendants to be prosecuted only for participation in the activities of a terrorist group, and not for assassinations and attempted assassinations committed in a terrorist context like the nine others.
