Three members of a family accused of harbouring Abdeslam have also been detained.
The raid came after Abdeslam's fingerprints were found in a flat in another Brussels district, which was raided on Tuesday.
Abdeslam was wounded in the leg as police moved in. Dramatic footage showed him being bundled into a police car after a volley of gunfire. Both suspects were discharged from hospital on Saturday. (bundle into: 묶여서 들어가다.) (a volley of: 집중사격)

French President Francois Hollande said Abdeslam's arrest was "an important moment".
"The battle against terrorism does not end tonight, even though this is a victory," Mr Hollande told a news conference on Friday with Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel.
"We must catch all those who allowed, organised or facilitated these attacks and we realise that they are a lot more numerous than we thought earlier and had identified," he said.
Mr Michel said the raid had come after "intense" detective work and said it was a "very important result in the battle for democracy".

Prosecutors said the second wanted man arrested in Molenbeek, Monir Ahmed Alaaj, had travelled with Abdeslam to Germany last October, where his fingerprints were taken during an identity check.
A false Syrian passport in Alaaj's name and Belgian identity papers under an alias were found in a flat in the southern suburb of Forest that was raided on Tuesday. (under an alias: 가명을 쓰고 있는)
Abdeslam's fingerprints were also found in the Forest flat.
One man - identified as Algerian national Mohamed Belkaid and linked to the Paris attacks - was shot dead in Tuesday's raid.
Officials have identified most of the people they believe to have carried out the assaults.
Most of the suspects either died during the attacks or were killed in subsequent police raids.
