An ISIS terrorist who launched the Paris attacks that killed 130 people has been awarded £450 in compensation.
Salah Abdeslam, 29, faces multiple life sentences for his alleged crimes - but has been awarded the payment for a breach of his privacy in prison. A court in Versailles, west of Paris, ruled that surveillance cameras watching him 24 hours a day in a solitary confinement cell breached his right to a private life.
Abdeslam remains in solitary confinement at Fleury-Merogis, the largest prison in Europe, near Paris. He has already received a 20-year prison sentence in Belgium for taking part in a shoot-out with police in Brussels in 2016. It came three days before his arrest while on the run following the Friday 13 onslaught on Paris.
Abdeslam, a French national from a Moroccan background, was part of a group of suicide bombers who caused carnage at the Stade de France, cafes and restaurants, and the Bataclan music venue. All blew themselves up or were shot dead by police, but Abdeslam abandoned his mission at France’s national stadium during a football international between France and Germany and went on the run.
The attackers killed a total of 130 people, including 89 at the Bataclan, while more than 410 others were wounded.
