The Third Bataclan Attacker

Paris – French officials announced on Wednesday, December 9th, they have identified the third gunman who detonated a suicide vest at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris last month, when Islamic State extremists killed 130 people in six locations across the French capital city and marked the most deadly attack on the territory since World War II.

DNA from 23-year-old Foued Mohamed-Aggad’s family helped identify him as a suspect in the attack on the Paris venue.

Seven of them were arrested in May past year upon their return to France and jailed while Aggad stayed on in Syria combating with Islamist insurgents, the report added.

Mohamed-Aggad reportedly travelled to Syria in late 2013 as part of a group of radicalised youth from Strasbourg that included his brother.

“The SMS message told her that her son had died, saying: He died on November 13 with his brothers, ‘” Cotta told Reuters, saying the message came about 10 days ago.

The assailant’s father told French paper, Le Parisien, that he “would have killed him beforehand” and that it would have been “better that if he died in Syria”.

Amimour also spent time in Syria, as did the presumed ringleader of the November 13 attackers, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, 28, a Belgian of Moroccan origin who was killed the following week in a police raid near Paris.

They were recruited to join ISIS by another Frenchman, Mourad Faraes, according to the AP. Two of the suicide bombers at the French national stadium carried Syrian passports that are believed to be fake.

A further 40 people were killed in a string of coordinated attacks in and around Paris on the same evening. “All three attackers died during the assault”.

Without giving a name, authorities confirmed Wednesday that the last Bataclan attacker had been identified, and the lawyer later said he was Foued Mohamed-Aggad.

There are still terrorist attackers who require identification.

Said Mohamed-Abbag separated from his wife in 2007 and said his son had lived with his mother. The Daesh, also known as ISIL/The Islamic State, claimed responsibility for the attack.

Mohamed-Aggad’s mother apparently received a text message during the night of the attack on the Bataclan that proclaimed her son’s death as a “martyr”, according to NBC News.

The three suicide bombers stormed the Bataclan music hall during a concert by US rock band “Eagles of Death Metal”, killing 90 people.

“What kind of human being could do what he did?” he asked.
