In an interview with Dutch newspaper De Volkskrant, Salah Abdeslam's former lawyer, Sven Mary, said: "He's got a beard, he's become a true fundamentalist whereas before he was a kid wearing Nike trainers." Abdeslam is believed to be the only survivor of the ISIS terrorists behind the attacks that took place on November 13, 2015 in the French capital.

A French national of Moroccan origin, Abdeslam was arrested in Brussels four days before the March 22 bombings on the city's airport and metro. Mary likened the 27 year-old ISIS militant's prison conditions, in which he is kept in solitary confinement and subjected to 24-hour video surveillance, to "psychological torture", and claimed that they have further radicalised him. Abdeslam is accused of providing logistical support to seven assailants who were killed at multiple locations they had bombed, including the Bataclan concert hall, the Stade de France, and several bars and restaurants in Paris.

On Bastille Day this year, dozens of people were brutally murdered when 31 year-old Mohamed Lahouiej-Bouhlel drove a lorry into and fired shots at a large crowd in Nice.
