More than 2,600 people, survivors or relatives of the 130 dead and hundreds of people injured during these attacks, as well as legal persons, have become civil parties to the criminal trial which ended on June 29 after ten months of debates.
Nearly 50 civil party applications were deemed inadmissible. Among them, the municipalities of Paris and Saint-Denis, which invoked material and image damage.
The judges accepted the constitutions of civil parties of a large number of direct or indirect victims, as well as companies managing the Bataclan and the various cafe terraces machine-gunned by the jihadists on November 13.
Salah Abdeslam and twelve co-defendants found civilly responsible for the damage caused by the explosion
For these facts, the court declared Salah Abdeslam and twelve of his former co-defendants civilly liable and jointly and severally liable to repair the damage caused by the explosion.
All of the final convicts are jointly and severally liable to repair the damage caused to the civil parties on November 13, 2015. Salah Abdeslam, the main defendant in the trial of the attacks, was sentenced to life imprisonment four months ago. The other 18 defendants had been found guilty.
