Salah Abdeslam (French pronunciation: ?[sala abd?slam]; born 15 September 1989) is a Belgium-born French national.
He is suspected of being the only surviving member of the group directly involved in the attacks in Paris on 13 November 2015 (in which 130 people were killed and 368 others were injured) through providing logistical support for the assailants, driving them to their target locations, and having some involvement in the manufacture of the explosives used. Having evaded authorities, he became the target of one of the largest manhunts in modern European history.
Europol had Abdeslam as first in a list of wanted criminals out of 57 individuals listed publicly by the organisation in January 2016.
In April 2018 he was convicted and sentenced to 20 years in prison for attempted murder against the police as shoot-out occurred during his arrest by the Belgian police on March 18, 2016. Abdeslam is known to have had contacts or social links to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), as ISIL subsequently made a claim of responsibility for the attack.
Of the men known to be involved in the attacks, he and Mohammad Abrini are the only two still alive - all others involved either having killed themselves or having been killed by French police officers.After about four months on the run, Abdeslam was apprehended during a police raid conducted in the Molenbeek area of Brussels, on 18 March 2016.
On 23 April 2018 Salah Abdeslam was sentenced in Brussels to 20 years in prison.
