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.

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