The sole surviving member of an Islamic State group cell that killed 130 people in Paris in 2015 has not appealed his whole-life sentence for the killings, the Paris chief prosecutor said Tuesday. Nor have the other 19 accused. The head of one of the victims' associations has expressed his relief that there will not be another trial.
Salah Abdeslam, a 32-year-old Frenchman of Moroccan origin, was captured alive by police four months after the attack at the Bataclan concert hall and other locations, the worst peace-time atrocity in modern French history.
