Paris attacks

Brussels: The Belgian authorities have charged a ninth person in connection with last month`s deadly Paris attacks, the prosecutor`s office said Thursday.

A spokesman said the suspect, who was not named had telephoned Hasna Aitboulachen, the cousin of ringleader Abdelhamid Abaaoud, several times after the November 13 attacks and before a police raid five days later in which they both died.
