BRUSSELS, April 9 (Reuters) - Belgium's federal prosecutor said on Saturday that Paris attacks suspect Mohamed Abrini admitted to being the "man in the hat" seen accompanying two suicide bombers at Brussels airport on March 22.
"We confronted him with the video evidence prepared by our special unit," a spokesman for the prosecutors' office said. "He had to admit it was him." (Reporting by Robert-Jan Bartunek; Editing by Toby Chopra)
