A Belgian court on Monday sentenced two members of a Muslim terrorist cell to prison sentences after being indicted of planning terror attacks against local Chareidi Jews and other targets. The main culprit, a Chechen national identified as Abubakar S., 26, was sentenced to 15 years in prison and another 10 years of police supervision. His wife and accomplice, 35, was sentenced to eight years in prison. Four other members of the cell received suspended sentences and fines. The defendants had formulated a detailed plan in the summer of 2023 to carry out terror attacks in a Chareidi neighborhood in Antwerp along with other locations, including crowded areas, a police station, a NATO building, and a Toeiva bar.
