Paris Attack Suspect to Cooperate

Paris Attack Suspect to Cooperate

BRUSSELS (AP) -- A lawyer for Salah Abdeslam, a prime suspect in the Nov. 13 Paris attacks, says his client wants to cooperate with the French authorities and wants to be transferred to France from his prison in Belgium.

Lawyer Cedric Moisse said Abdeslam is not resisting extradition after his March 18 arrest, and would want it to happen rather quickly.

Abdeslam is accused of helping to plan and execute the attacks in Paris that killed 130 people. After crossing back into Belgium the day after the attacks he was Europe's No. 1 fugitive until Belgian authorities caught him on March 18.
