Moment Paris attacker detonates suicide bomb caught on CCTV

The 31-year-old brother of Salah Abdeslam – who is also accused of being part of both the November 13 attacks that killed 130 – is caught on CCTV exploding into smithereens after detonating his bomb.

Miraculously, everyone else in the small, packed restaurant escaped with minor injuries.

Abdeslam – a French national brought up in Brussels – is seen walking into the restaurant at 9.40pm.

Looking pale and nervous, he wanders through the door after being dropped off by a car outside.

He walks towards an empty table, lowers his head – and then detonates the device.

There is a puff of smoke and Abdeslam’s torso can momentarily be seen separating from the lower half of his body.

He died instantly.

The French TV channel M6 broadcast the footage on Sunday night.

Salah Abdeslam was finally captured in Brussels last month – just before alleged accomplices killed 32 people in a series of attacks in the Belgian capital.

He is expected to be extradited back to Paris – where he will face accusations of mass murder and terrorist crimes.
