Not only did Denis connect Sharia4Belgium and Resto du Tawhid, he also provided a key connection between Sharia4Belgium operating mainly in Flanders and the so-called Zerkani network based in and around the Molenbeek district of Brussels. The Zerkani Network By far the most dangerous network to have surfaced in Belgium was a group of Brussels-based radicals centered around Khalid Zerkani, a year-old, Moroccan-born resident of Brussels who targeted youngsters in and around Molenbeek.

Nicknamed Papa Noel Santa Claus because of his cash handouts, Zerkani led his network of criminals as a gang. Investigators established that he provided recruits with fake documentation and put them in touch with individuals who could smuggle them across the Turkish-Syrian border. Abaaoud had connections to many of the Islamic State-linked plots and attacks against Europe over the past two years.
The French Islamic State recruit Mehdi Nemmouche spoke on the phone with Abaaoud for almost half an hour a few months before he attacked the Jewish Museum of Belgium in Brussels in May , while Abaaoud also coordinated the terror plot that was thwarted in Verviers in Belgium in mid-January The Zerkani network had a very different profile from Sharia4Belgium. Whereas Fouad Belkacem openly preached in the streets and Sharia4Belgium even had a YouTube channel and website, the group around Zerkani operated clandestinely. Whereas the Zerkani network operated more like a criminal gang and drew in a lot of unemployed people from the Brussels Canal Zone and a significant number with criminal backgrounds but little or no Islamic background, Sharia4Belgium had recruits from Antwerp, Vilvoorde, and Brussels of various backgrounds, including from all layers of the Muslim population, even people with higher education who had been inspired by their message.
Those subsequently plotting attacks were able to draw on contacts from criminal milieus to source weapons as well as the chemicals needed for bomb-building in addition to cars and safe houses. Despite these differences in the networks, Belgian extremist circles were a small world. Abaaoud and Laachraoui both left Belgium for Syria in early and joined the ranks of Majlis Shura al-Mujahidin, which at that point was led solely by Amr al-Absi whose Katibat al-Muhajirin[l] was led by Sharia4Belgium member Elouassaki.
There was, however, an important branch of French-speaking fighters counting a significant amount of Belgian, French, and Tunisian fighters. In Syria, French and Belgian fighters had a strong connection to each other because of linguistic and national links. For example, Mohamed Soulayman, a Belgian foreign fighter recruited by the Zerkani network, used the same cell phone while in Syria as Houssien Elouassaki, the Majlis Shura al-Mujahidin commander, and other former Sharia4Belgium members.
The Belgian contingent in Syria maintained contact with fighters who had returned to Europe as well as their social circle and families back home. It was via these networks that new fighters were recruited and that weapons, ammunition, money, and fake identity papers were transferred across Europe. Alilou spent a month in Syria between October 19, , and November 16, He then left Belgium a second time with two new recruits on February 12, , and came back to Belgium with one of them on February 25, A month later he left Belgium again but was stopped at the Turkish border and sent back to Belgium.
The Belgian police ignored him on arrival in Belgium, and two weeks later he escorted two more recruits to Syria, escorting his mother back to Belgium in May on his return home.
Extraordinarily, he made a fourth successful trip to Syria on November 9, When Alilou returned to Belgium on July 25, , he was finally arrested. Abdelhamid Abaaoud. It is possible that operatives within Katibat al-Battar encouraged Abaaoud to set in motion a campaign of terrorism against Europe. The first time Europe was confronted with a clear attempt to follow up on these orders came on January 15, , when Belgian police and security forces raided a house in Verviers.
