Woman in Paris Raid Did Not Blow Herself Up

Media outlets had widely reported that Hasna had become Europe’s first female suicide bomber, but officials later confirmed she was a victim of the explosion and did not detonate the suicide vest.

The woman killed after a police raid on an apartment in suburban Paris targeting the alleged ringleader of the Paris attacks did not die in a suicide bombing, police officials said Friday. The Guardian called her a “party girl” and cited acquaintances who described her rapid transformation from social drinker to a hardcore jihadist who boasted of her plans to move to Syria.

Eventually Aitboulahcen left Creutzwald for Clichy-sous-Bois, a suburban Paris township like the one she had been born in.

Reports say she might have fallen under the influence of Abaaoud, who prosecutors believe was preparing the team in the apartment to launch fresh attacks. On Wednesday, she blew herself up during a police raid on a squat targeting those behind the Paris atrocities.

During the police confrontation with Boulahcen, she vocally denied that one of the thugs who devised the Paris attack Abdelhamid Abaaoud, now believed to be her cousin, was her “boyfriend”.

A woman replies, “He’s not my boyfriend!” before the explosion triggered by the suicide vest.

The 26-year-old woman was immediately placed under surveillance, with her home and mobile phone bugged. Then as she grew up she went off the rails. “That’s when we saw a human body, a woman’s head, fly through the window and land on the pavement – on the other side of the street”. “On Wednesday I turned on my television and learned she had killed herself”, her brother said.

She showed CNN a few more of photographs of herself, adding: “Look at these photos, similarities in looks with her are so minimal”.

“I told her to stop all of this but she would not listen, she ignored my numerous attempts to give her advice telling me I was not her dad, or her husband, and so I should leave her alone”.

He told MailOnline: “She was not interested in studying her religion”.

Aitboulahcen’s Facebook page indicated that she studied at the University of Lorraine, Belgium newspaper La Derniere Heure found. She had never read Quran, Youssouf Ait Boulahcen, Hasna’s brother said.

In addition, authorities have not detailed his exact whereabouts or actions during the deadly rampage that killed 129 people last week in Paris.

Boulahcen’s brother, who declined to be identified, told BBC News that his sister had a sad childhood, but said he doesn’t think she was completely radicalized by ISIS into an armed militant as defined in Islamic fundamentalism.

Seven of the Paris attackers died on the same night as the attacks.

It was a bloody end to her life.

“You know this is really consistent with a lot of women who join the jihadi groups they live this very licentious lifestyle and then they become a jihadi they completely reinvent themselves”.
