Paris: French investigators have identified a Syria-based extremist of dual Belgian and Moroccan nationality as a suspected coordinator of attacks in Paris and Brussels, sources close to the case told AFP on Tuesday.
Oussama Atar, a 32-year-old thought to be a member of the ISIS group, was already a suspect in the Brussels attacks on March 22 but has now been linked to the November 13, 2015 atrocities in Paris.
"He's the only coordinator from Syria to have been identified during the investigations," one of the sources told AFP.
