The lawyer for the only surviving attacker from the November 2015 terrorist massacre in Paris has criticised her client’s murder conviction and life prison sentence without the possibility of parole, saying the verdict “raises serious questions”.

Olivia Ronen did not say if Salah Abdeslam would appeal against the verdict and sentence. He has 10 days in which to do so.
