French investigative judges on Wednesday ordered the trial of five people, including Mehdi Nemmouche, the perpetrator of the attack on the Jewish Museum in Brussels. They will be brought to court on charges of detention, torture and barbaric acts of association linked to a terrorist project, and of complicity in these acts, according to a judicial source.

Two other suspects may have been killed in Syria in 2017: Salim Ben Ghalam, who is responsible for the detention, and Belgian hostage handler Osama Attar, who was sentenced in absentia for planning the Paris attacks.
