Stade de France Bomber Arrived on Migrant Boat

The bomber was among the terrorists who killed more than 120 people in gun and bomb attacks across Paris.

French authorities had asked their Greek counterparts to check a passport and fingerprints of one man and the fingerprints of another who were thought to have registered in Greece, which is the main entry point into Europe for Syrian refugees.

The owner was allowed to proceed because he passed what is essentially the only test in place, he had no worldwide arrest warrant against him, police in both states said today. One of the suicide bombers has been identified from a finger recovered at the site.

The Serbian interior ministry has confirmed a passport in the name of Almohammad was registered at the Presevo border crossing between Macedonia and Serbia, although but did not confirm the date.

He said authorities would watch far-right extremists closely, noting there have already been in recent months “appalling scales of attacks against asylum seekers and asylum-seeker shelters”.

In Germany, Interior Minister Thomas De Maiziere said there could be more would-be attackers out there and that Germany was a target country of the Islamic State group just like France.

Greece identified the man as 25-year old Ahmad Almohammad, from the northwestern Syrian city of Idlib, and said he had entered Europe through the Greek island of Leros, where he was processed on October 3.

Rescue personnel help victims of the Paris terror attacks on November 13. French President Francois Hollande says he is closing the country’s borders and declaring a state of emergency after several dozen people were killed in a series of unprecedented terrorist attacks.

In the wake of the attacks, right-leaning European politicians – including France’s Marine le Pen – said that the country should immediately stop admitting refugees.

To those who have doubts about Syrians after the French attacks, Mr Dawood says: “A terrorist is a terrorist”.

On 3 October a man using the name Ahmed Almohamed arrived on the small Greek island of Leros and registered as a refugee with the Syrian passport.

A passport found next to the first Stade de France suicide bomber has led investigators to piece together his possible route into Europe as part of the mass movement of migrants through Greece and the Balkans.

The documents discovery amid the bloodied aftermath of multiple bombings at a Paris stadium was seized on by opponents of Europes refugee resettlement scheme as an urgent argument in favour of tighter border controls. “Paris changes everything”, Bavarian finance minister Markus Soeder told Welt am Sonntag newspaper.

The attacks have reignited a row within the European Union on how to handle the flood of asylum seekers from Syria and other countries in the Middle East, Africa and Asia. He continued saying, “All the area is destroyed, and just the passport is still ok?”

“It’s a problem”, says Ghaled, who urged against victimising his countrymen, saying the attackers “are not Syrians”.
