France Formally Charges Train Attack Suspect

Train terror suspect charged, Afghan life amid security concerns, People without a mind's eye

French prosecutors have formally charged a terror suspect who was tackled by passengers on a train last week. The Moroccan suspect, Ayoub El-Khazzani, 25, has been remanded in custody. We hear from a journalist who has visited his family.
