Police officers man a cordon in the Molenbeek district of Brussels on Monday
Belgian prime minister Charles Michel has threatened to close “certain radical mosques” in the Molenbeek neighbourhood of Brussels that security services are increasingly viewing as a launch pad for the worst terror attack in French history.
But as masked officers swooped on the forlorn district on Monday, blocking off roads and rounding up suspects, many residents suggested that curing Molenbeek would not be so straightforward.
“It’s all on the internet, not in the mosques,” said Jamal Ikazban, a socialist lawmaker in the Brussels parliament, speaking over glasses of mint tea in a traditional north African café.
