Here's the first guy charged with the Brussels bombings having a go at being a journalist

Fayçal Cheffou, the first person to be charged with the bomb attacks on Brussels Airport, used to claim that he was a journalist. Belgian investigators still aren't quite sure what role Cheffou had in the attacks, but AFP are reporting that he may be the unidentified third person in the well-circulated picture of alleged bombers Ibrahim el-Bakraoui and Najim Laachraoui wheeling their deadly suitcases into the airport.

Here's the picture. Cheffou is suspected of being the person in the hat.

In 2014, Cheffou recorded a video in which he presented himself as a journalist and published it on a YouTube channel called "Les Opprimés" - The Oppressed. In the video, which is shot outside a centre for asylum seekers in north-west Brussels, Cheffou complains that Muslims inside who fasted during Ramadan weren't allowed to eat after sunset.

Here's what Cheffou looks like in the video.

He is holding a microphone and clearly wants to be perceived as being a legitimate journalist.

And here's the video:
