The Belgian state has faced another defeat in the ongoing Nizar Trabelsi case. The Tunisian was convicted in 2004 for a planned attack on the army base of Kleine Brogel. The Brussels Court of Appeal now rules that Belgium must inform the United States that Trabelsi cannot be convicted a second time for the same offences. The possible penalty that is attached to it has been increased from 50,000 to 250,000 euros.
