The marathon 10-month trial has reopened the scars of modern France’s worst peacetime atrocity, having began on September 8, 2021. “When you take part, you hear about everyone else’s stories, what they suffered, what they lost,” David Fritz Goeppinger, one of the Bataclan hostages, told AFP recently.Arthur Denouveaux, head of the Life for Paris survivors’ group, said that after nine gruelling months, people were ready for the end.“I’m not that interested in the verdicts in themselves. It’s really about saying ‘That’s it. It’s behind us. The justice system has done its work, we can move on’,” he told AFP.

Prosecutors have requested a full-life term, the severest penalty for criminals that can be imposed under French law. But Abdeslam’s defence team has urged the judges to make a verdict based strictly on the law and not emotions. The huge loss of life marked the start of a gruesome and violent period in Europe, as IS claimed responsibility for numerous attacks across the continent, leading Paris to ramp up its military campaign to defeat the extremists in Syria and Iraq.
