Rabat – Moroccan authorities have issued an arrest warrant for Salah Abdeslam, suspect in the Paris attack who is at the centre of an international manhunt, the police said on Friday.
The warrant was issued late November, but a Moroccan security source said it was not clear whether Abdeslam had fled to Morocco or elsewhere in North Africa.

In November, German police launched a search after a tip-off that he was there.
Abdeslam, whose brother blew self up in the Paris attacks which killed at least 130 people, has been on the run since Nov. 13.
As a French citizen, he can travel freely in the European Union’s Schengen area where there are no border controls (Reuters/NAN)
