Brahim Aouissaoui, the chief suspect in the fatal stabbings of three people in a church in the French city of Nice in October, was charged on Monday with their murder, anti-terrorism prosecutors said. The 21-year-old Tunisian national, was shot and seriously injured by police after the October 29 attack. He was charged after his condition in hospital improved, allowing him to be questioned.

Aouissaoui had arrived in Europe from Tunisia in September, first crossing the Mediterranean to Italy and then crossing into France overland.

He was shot several times by police after his killing spree.
