Abrini and Krayem told investigators that the brothers had said that they carried out the murder to see what it was like to kill someone. The victim's widow was told in 2020 that it was almost certain that the El-Bakraoui brothers had killed her husband, although officially the case was closed.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-56370508 |title=Brussels bombers 'murdered elderly man as a test' |work=BBC |date=12 March 2021 |access-date=12 December 2022 |archive-date=12 December 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221212113410/https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-56370508 |url-status=live }}</ref> Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
