The latter presented, Tuesday afternoon, before the Brussels Assize Court, which judges the attacks of March 22, 2016, a very detailed report about Salah Abdeslam, highlighting his share of humanity. Salah Abdeslam assured the court that he had abandoned his explosive belt on November 13, 2015 in Paris, but also that he had defused it. For federal prosecutors, this was not established by the Paris Assize Court, but Salah Abdeslam insisted, stating that he had removed the switch and the battery from the bomb before leaving it there, for avoid injuring people.

“Of course I have humanity, I made the right choice at that time. I was judged anyway. I wanted to say that there is evolution here. I showed respect for the victims, I participated in the debates, I collaborated… It shows that there is evolution, only a blind man would say the opposite”, declared the accused .
“I’m trying to build a future despite the ordeal I suffered in France [soit une incarcération en régime strict], and despite all these things that I have on my shoulders and with which I have to live. I lost a brother, I have my family which is destroyed, I have an uncertain future, but I try to fight, to stay alive,” he said.

A little earlier, Doctor Daniel Zaguri, one of the psychiatric experts who met Salah Abdeslam in November 2021 in Paris, explained that it emerged from this interview that the accused “oscillated between protest of humanity and claim of “a determined commitment, between more authentic postures and one-upmanship postures. He alternates between the postures of the little guy from Molenbeek and that of the soldier of God”.
According to the doctor, the person concerned said he was “not insensitive to the suffering of the victims”, but at the same time he “rejected any idea of gratuitous violence”, explaining the victims of the attacks as the representatives of a State to be fought.
Going further, the psychiatrist argued that “the subject continues to hold the same speech [radical], but with less vehemence. He no longer quite believes in it himself, but he cannot take the risk of doubt”. He added that Salah Abdeslam “is a man-system like all radicalized subjects, but at the same time we feel that it is cracking, we can see a slight bankruptcy of the system”.
