Even before he helped mastermind the Madrid bombings, Amer Aziz was one of Europe’s most wanted terrorists. So why wasn’t he apprehended?
“More than half of the individuals who committed the March 11 bombings were known by at least five countries,” states Jean-Charles Brisard, consultant to the Madrid Bombing Enquiry. “Warnings were ignored.” He’s angry that rivalry between different intelligence agencies enabled one of the main suspects, Amer Aziz, to escape. Aziz is also wanted for the 9-11 attacks and Casablanca bombings. In 2001, he was placed under 24 hour surveillance after it was discovered he was recruiting and financing for Al Qaeda. But police surveillance was blown by Spanish intelligence officers and he went on the run. Now his native country of Morocco has repudiated all links to him and blame Spanish authorities for not doing more to stop him.
