Police appeal for bomber identity

Attacker who blew himself up had been registered as a refugee on the Greek island of Leros

POLICE have launched an appeal for information on a third bomber who died during a suicide attack on the Stade de France.

The man has been partially identified through fingerprints which record him arriving in Europe among refugees who were processed on the Greek island of Leros on October 3.

A source close to the investigation has told 20 Minutes that the man produced a Syrian passport with the name Mohammad al-Mahmod when he arrived in Greece.

A second bomber who died in the Stade de France attack, which killed one person, was also processed at the same time.

His photo has already been released by French police who are also seeking more information about his identity.

The two men are believed to have taken a ferry to Piraeus in Athens before following a route to France via Serbia.

Only one person involved in the stadium attack has so far been identified: Bilal Hadfi, a 20-year-old French national who lived in Belgium who also blew himself outside the stadium.

Investigators are still hunting Salah Abdeslam who is thought to be involved in the Paris attacks which killed 130 people and injured 350 more. He is thought to have escaped through Belgium.
