Illustration picture shows the Justice Palace during the composition of the jury for the trial of Hicham Chaib, before the Antwerp Assises Court, in Antwerp, Thursday 21 October 2021. Chaib is the former assistant of Sharia4Belgium leader Fouad Belkacem, who is accused of terrorist murder in Syria. A few days after the March 22, 2016 attacks in Brussels and Zaventem, a video from Islamic State surfaced in which Chaib glorifies the attacks. At the end of the video, he shoots a prisoner in an orange suit twice in the head. The execution footage was deemed authentic by experts. The identity of the prisoner could not be ascertained during the judicial investigation. Hicham Chaib is not present at the trial nor is he represented by a lawyer. It is also not clear where he currently resides or if he is even alive. The assize proceedings are therefore being conducted in absentia. BELGA PHOTO WIM KEMPENAERS
