2023-10-20 17:14:12

Justice Minister Vincent Van Quickenborne announced his resignation on Friday evening during a press conference organized in the presence of Brussels Attorney General Johan Delmulle.

This resignation follows information gathered this Friday at 9 a.m. concerning the author of the attack committed in Brussels on Monday evening. On August 15, 2022, Tunisia requested the extradition of Abdesalem Lassoued, but this request was not processed.

“It is an individual, monumental and unacceptable fault,” declared the minister, who said he took his political responsibility by submitting his resignation.
