Following a DNA test, the Belgian authorities identified him as the sole Indian victim of the terror strikes that have killed 35 people and injured over 300.

PM Modi will leave tonight on a three-nation visit during which he will attend the India-EU summit in Brussels and the nuclear security summit in Washington.
