Belgium's Court of Cassation rejects recusal bid in Ullens murder trial

Belgium's Court of Cassation rejected a recusal request filed by Nicolas Ullens' defense against the three judges of the Walloon Brabant assize court, which convicted him on October 7 for the murder of his mother-in-law Myriam Lechien. The defense alleged procedural irregularity in the verdict, but the high court's decision upholds the trial's validity. This is a domestic legal development with no immediate market or geopolitical implications.
