New evidence has revealed that ISIS killer Mohamed Lahouaiej Bouhlel sent his family £84,000 just days before his Bastille Day mission.
The Islamic fanatic persuaded friends to smuggle the bundles of cash back to his family in their hometown of Msaken, Tunisia.

Although Bouhlel had been sending small sums of money to his family, his brother admitted that they were stunned by the size of the ‘fortune’.
‘Mohammed sent the family £84,000 in the last few days,‘ explained the suspects brother Jabel Bouhlel .
‘He sent the money illegally but my brother is not a terrorist. He gave cash to people he knew who were returning to our village and asked them to give it to the family.’
His father also insisted that Bouhlel was mentally ill and not a radicalised soldier as claimed today by ISIS.
Mohamed Mondher Lahouaiej Bouhlel stressed his extremely disappointment. He told how his son suffered from severe depression and he would get angry and shout and break everything in front of him. He was violent and very ill so was prescribed antidepressants after he had financial problems that led to a nervous breakdown.
