Paris Attack Mastermind’s Fate Unknown

The fate of the suspected mastermind of Friday’s attacks in Paris remains unknown after a Police raid on a flat ended in bloodshed.

Paris prosecutor, Francois Molins, has revealed that Abdelhamid Abaaoud was not among the eight people arrested during the raid in the Paris suburb of Saint Denis.

French experts are, however, working to establish whether the suspected organiser of the Paris attacks was among those killed.

President Francois Hollande declared the state of emergency for 12 days, after gunmen and suicide bombers targeted a concert hall, cafes and the Stade de France on Friday last week, killing 129 people and injuring scores more.

Members of the French parliament are due to vote on extending the state of emergency.
