The route that Nice terrorist Brahim Aoussaoui took to enter Europe has been revealed, as Italian officials came under pressure to explain how he was allowed to leave their custody and enter France.
Aoussaoui left his family's village in Tunisia on or around September 15 before being smuggled to the island of Lampedusa, where he landed with 28 other migrants on September 20. He was then placed into coronavirus quarantine, first on the island itself, and then on board a ship which sailed to Bari, on the Italian mainland.
He disembarked on October 8 when a smiling picture was taken and background checks carried out, which came back clean. The following day, Aoussaoui was given a deportation order after it was found he had no legal right to enter Europe, which gave him seven days to leave Italy.
Despite this, it seems he was allowed to walk free by Italian authorities - though this is under investigation - and boarded a train to France, skirting border checks that may have stopped him.
He arrived in Paris, where it is thought he stayed for at least two weeks, though his exact movements are unclear.
Then, on October 29, he caught an early train from Paris to Nice, arriving at 6.30am and making his way to the Notre Dame basilica, where he massacred three people - including rector Vincent Loques and mother-of-three Simone Barreto Silv.

Open borders have potential issues. That is a major one. You have no idea who the hell is in your country.
