Police stopped Europe's most wanted terrorist THREE times in the hours immediately after the Paris attacks but he was released every time, according to his getaway driver

The Daily Mail reports:

Police stopped the most wanted terrorist in Europe three times a few hours after the Paris attacks - but he was let free every time, it emerged today.

The astonishing revelations about Salah Abdeslam, 26, highlight the lax security that ultimately allowed Islamic State operatives to murder 130 people at will.

Until today it was thought that Abdeslam, a Belgian-born Frenchman who is still on the run, was questioned once by a traffic patrol on the day after the atrocities.

But investigators have now pieced together his escape following the assault on Paris on November 13th, when the Bataclan music venue, the Stade de France, and restaurants and bars were targeted.

Government failure, yet again.
