REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, BRUSSELS -- France would request very soon the extradition of Salah Abdeslam, the most-wanted fugitive from November's Paris Attacks.

French President, Francois Hollande, said he had no doubt judicial authorities would request extradition very soon.

"Salah Abdeslam was directly involved in preparing the organisation and perpetration of these attacks," Hollande said in a joint news conference with the Belgian Prime Minister, Charles Michel, as quoted by Reuters.

Abdeslam, a 26-year-old French national born in Brussels, was captured after a shootout in Brussels on Friday (18/3).
