Mohamed Abdeslam said his brother "voluntarily chose not to blow himself up" along with the other ISIS jihadists, who killed 130 people in gun and suicide bomb attacks in November.
"If I wanted, there would have been more victims," Salah Abdeslam had told his brother from prison in northern Belgium, according to Belgian media chain BFMTV. "Luckily, I did not follow through."
Salah Abdeslam, the sole surviving suspect in the November attacks in Paris, was arrested in Brussels on March 18 after four months on the run as Europe's most wanted man. He is believed to have acted as a logistics coordinator and told investigators he was meant to carry out a suicide bombing at the Stade de France stadium, but backed out.
