Belgian authorities issue arrest warrant for new suspect

 

BRUSSELS - Belgian prosecutors issued an arrest warrant Saturday for a new suspect in the attacks on the Brussels airport and subway as authorities moved to clean up damage caused by the explosions.

 

The federal prosecutor's office said a warrant has been issued for a man only identified as Faycal C. He is wanted for "involvement in a terrorist group, terrorist killings and attempted terrorist killings," the statement said.

 

A police raid was conducted at his home. No arms or explosives were found, prosecutors said.

 

Belgian media are reporting that a man called Faycal Cheffou has been identified as the man suspected of fleeing Brussels airport after two alleged accomplices blew themselves up there.
