A man who provided an apartment to three suspects in the Paris terror attacks would go before anti-terrorism judges, French media reported Tuesday.
Jawad Bendaoud, the landlord, was seen talking with Hasna Ait Belahcen, a woman believed to have ties with Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the mastermind of the Paris attacks, on the eve of Wednesday's police raid in a Saint-Denis flat in northern Paris, the reports said.
Right before his arrest, Bendaoud told news channel BFMTV that a friend asked him to accommodate two of his buddies for a few days and he was not aware that they were terrorists.
The three occupants of the apartment in Saint-Denis were killed in a police raid on Wednesday, including Abaaoud, a Belgian of Moroccan origin who was suspected to have orchestrated a series of explosions and shootings in Paris on Nov. 13, which killed 130 people and injured more than 300 others.
Another main suspect Salah Abdeslam is still at large.
