Baku-APA. European authorities continued Saturday the complex task of unraveling the plot behind the horrific bombings in Brussels four days earlier -- announcing that they had charged one individual with "terrorist murder", APA reports quoting CNN.
The person, who was identified only as "Faycal C." by Belgium's Federal Prosecutor's Office, was arrested Thursday by Belgian authorities and formally charged Friday. Authorities didn't specify what role the person is suspected of having in the bombings at Brussels Airport and a downtown subway station that left 31 people dead and more than 300 injured.

In addition to terrorist murder, Faycal C. faces charges of "participation in terrorist activities" and "attempted terrorist murder," officials said.
No weapons or explosives were found in the person's home when Belgian authorities carried out a raid Thursday, the office said. Further details about Faycal C. were not immediately available.
Authorities said 24 of the 31 victims have been positively identified: 13 were Belgians, and 11 were foreigners from eight nationalities.
Residents of Brussels were trying, against the odds, to return to some sense of normalcy in the wake of Tuesday's attacks.
