(SOUNDBITE) (French) LAWYER FOR PARIS ATTACK SUSPECT SALAH ABDESLAM, FRANCK BERTON, SAYING:“We have each decided to stop acting for Salah Abdeslam’s defence. We’re not abandoning him, we’re no longer acting.”(SOUNDBITE) (French) LAWYER FOR PARIS ATTACK SUSPECT SALAH ABDESLAM, FRANCK BERTON, SAYING:“We know, we are convinced, and he told us himself that he will not speak and that he will respect, or rather he will enact his right to remain silent. In our position, what would you have us do? We had already made clear, I told you from the first day that if my client remains silent, if the client remains silent, we will stop defending him.”(SOUNDBITE) (French) LAWYER FOR PARIS ATTACK SUSPECT SALAH ABDESLAM, FRANCK BERTON, SAYING:“When a warden is scrutinising your deeds and actions on an infra-red camera 24 hours a day, even at night, you go nuts. And that’s the result of a political decision. It’s not a decision made by judges, it’s not the six magistrates in this case who made that decision.”(SOUNDBITE) (French) LAWYER FOR PARIS ATTACK SUSPECT SALAH ABDESLAM, SVEN MARY, SAYING:“You make Salah Abdeslam fall silent but the real victims in all of this at the end of the day are the victims, the actual victims of the Paris attacks because they have a right to know the truth, and to try to comprehend the incomprehensible. ”(SOUNDBITE) (French) LAWYER FOR PARIS ATTACK SUSPECT SALAH ABDESLAM, FRANCK BERTON, SAYING:“We were convinced that he had things to say and that he was going to say them. But for reasons which, let’s be honest, were political reasons, everything but legal reasons, he was crushed, he was destroyed and he won’t say anything any more. But what a waste.”
