Paris attacks suspect to appear before French magistrates on Wednesday

PARIS (Reuters) - Salah Abdeslam, suspected of playing a major part in the Paris attacks which killed 130 people, will appear before French magistrates on Wednesday with a view to being placed under formal investigation, the French public prosecutor said. The prosecutor will request that he be held in custody, according to a statement. The move comes after Abdeslam was extradited to France from Belgium earlier on Wednesday. The suspect arrived in France at 0705 GMT according to the prosecutor. (Reporting by James Regan; Editing by Andrew Callus)
