BRUSSELS, March 27 (UPI) -- Italian police arrested an Algerian national who is suspected to have helped Islamic State militants connected to the Brussels attacks by producing fake identification documents.
Djamal Eddine Ouali, 40, has been the subject of a Belgian arrest warrant since January. He is believed to have given the falsified papers to Najim Laachraoui, one of the three suicide bombers at Brussels airport. Eddine is also thought to have helped Salah Abdeslam, arrested this month in Belgium for his alleged involvement in the Nov. 13 Paris attacks, and another man killed by Belgian authorities in a raid this month. Ouali may be extradited to Belgium.
