The first bomber who blasted himself in front of the Stade de France, is a Syrian, and had entered along with other refugees through the island of Leros on 2 October. This is where his travel documents were urgently issued under the name Ahmad Al Mohammad.

Al Mohammad's fingerprints match those of the kamikaze in front of the stadium, according to CNN citing an anonymous French senator, who had received this information from the Interior Ministry.

According to Christian Amanpour, the European investigators believe that there is a very professional network of terrorists, which blend into the groups of refugees. According to the journalist, the other two bombers from the stadium had fake Turkish passports.

A source close to the investigation said to CNN, that an Egyptian passport was found on another perpetrator. It is believed that this passport was forged, too.

US sources say confirmations from DNA tests and fingerprints are expected, so that the perpetrators could officially be announced. However, this might take some time.

Under the current process, those who arrive as refugees on the Greek islands go through a committee. The latter splits them into a group with passports, and another one for those without passports. The latter provide their personal data and where they come from, and are accordingly registered as refugees. They receive the same documents as those having a passport, and are able to travel with them around Europe.

In parallel with that, the Eurodac electronic system creates ID cards containing the refugees' data and fingerprints. These can be sent by the Greek to the French authorities.

According to the Serbian Ministry of Interior, the holder of the Syrian passport, which was found by the corpse of one of the terrorists, had crossed the Serbian border on 7 October and requested asylum.

A short while ago, sources from the Greek citizens' protection ministry said that only one of the dead terrorists was registered on Leros and his passport was not fake.

The official statement of the deputy minister for citizens' protection, Nikos Toskas, says: "As far as the Syrian passport found at the site of the terrorist attack is concerned, its holder came to Leros on 3 October 2015. There, he was registered under EU rules laid down at the summit on refugee issues. We don't know whether the passport had been checked by other countries, through which its holder has probably passed. We will continue working hard in these difficult circumstances, to ensure the security of our country and of Europe, and will insist on full identification of those going through the borders within refugee flows."
