Belgium seeks public help in search for two Paris suspects

Police have issued images from cards and photographs of the suspects, seemingly taken from closed circuit television footage. According to Belgian media, the house was the hideout from which the assailant planned the Paris attacks and is possibly the location where the attackers made the bombs used during the November 13 attacks.

Abdeslam is believed to have travelled twice to the Hungarian capital Budapest twice in September using a rental auto.

Authorities have been looking for suspect Salah Abdeslam for almost a month.

“The federal prosecutors’ office and the investigating judge wish to appeal to the public again to look out for two more suspects the investigators are actively searching for”, the prosecutors’ office said in a statement.

The police warned public that the two are “dangerous and probably armed” and they should not intervene directly if they encountered either of them.

It also said it sees the country’s budget deficit at 2.9% a percentage of gross domestic product this year, larger than its previous expectations of a deficit of 2.7% of GDP.

Samir Z., a French national born in 1995, had been detained at Brussels airport on Sunday as he was boarding a plane bound for Morocco, said the prosecutor. The other suspect is a Belgian, Pierre N., 28, who was arrested in the Brussels district of Molenbeek, Flemish VRT TV channel reported.

Since Belgium opened its investigation last month it has charged eight people and been through a major terror alert that put Brussels on lockdown amid fears of a new Paris-style attack.
