A migrant has been arrested carrying an identical Syrian passport to one found on the body of a Paris suicide bomber, it was revealed today.

Serbian police say the document in the name of Ahmad Almohammad, 25, was the same as one found on a ISIS corpse outside the Stade de France.

It had the same date of birth and place of birth but the only difference was the photograph and it is thought that both passports are fakes made by the same forger.

Serbian newspaper Blic said the holder of the second passport was arrested at a refugee camp in Presevo on Saturday and held for questioning.

Shocking: A Syrian migrant has been arrested carrying an identical passport to one found on the body of a Paris suicide bomber - including the same name Ahmad Almohammad - but a different photo

The Syrian passport found among the remains of a suicide bomber who blew himself up outside the Stade de France was also identical to the one obtained by MailOnline in just four days.

For just $2,000, journalist Nick Fagge obtained the same forged Syrian passports being used by ISIS fighters to trick the authorities into believing they are asylum seekers.

Suspects: Ahmad Almohammad, 25, and another more hostile man, named on ferry tickets as Mohammed Almohammad, arrived on Leros together last month.

The passport found at the Stade de France suicide bombers may have belonged to a loyalist Syrian regime soldier killed several months ago, AFP has said.

The passport is in the name of Ahmad al-Mohammad, born September 10, 1990 in the Syrian city of Idlib.

French investigators say all indications point towards the fact he was a soldier loyal to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the passport was either taken or fabricated based on a real identity.

It raises fears that Europe could have several more Ahmad Almohammads - or other fake names - in Europe using the same bogus documents.

Terrorism experts have said that the passport found on the body of at least one suicide bomber could be fake.

ISIS may have asked the bombers to carry bogus or stolen documents belonging to migrants crossing into Europe from Syria.

They also hope inflaming tensions between Europeans and migrants could help them recruit more jihadis.

Professor Greg Barton from Deakin University in Australia said: 'It raises questions about whether it is real.

'A suicide attacker will go through a ritual of bathing and praying beforehand.

'They would have known that the documents would not have been atomised by the blast. It could be a way for ISIS to fan the flames of hatred towards migrants.

'Their recruitment would be helped by this suspicion of migrants'.

It came as MailOnline can reveal the suicide bomber who sneaked onto a Greek island posing as a Syrian refugee was travelling with an ‘aggressive’ man who police now believe could have been a second terrorist.

Ahmad Almohammad, 25, and another more hostile man, named on ferry tickets as Mohammed Almohammad, arrived on Leros together last month.

They were in a rush to get to mainland Europe ‎and told people money was no object.

Suspected suicide bomber Ahmad Almohammad reached Greece after crossing the Aegean from Turkey on a raft with 198 others. He was given papers (left and right) so he could travel to Athens because officers believed he was a genuine refugee

Tickets: A Greek website has uncovered the terror suspect's ferry tickets to Greece and shows he was travelling with a Mohammed Almuhamed, likely to be a relation

Travel log: Ahmad Almohammad has been accused of being a suicide bomber at the Bataclan concert hall and is believed to be travelling with another member of the terror squad

At least two of the terrorists is believed to have left Syria, travelled through Turkey and registered as a refugee on the Greek island of Leros on October 3 before continuing his journey northwards eventually arriving in Paris

They took a small boat onwards from the tiny island because they did not want to wait three days for the ferry to Athens.

One person who met them told the Mail the first man who French authorities yesterday identified as one of the Paris attackers was ‘calm and quiet’, but his accomplice was ‘aggressive’.

The two men had similar surnames on their passports, but the island local said he believed they were friends rather than brothers.

The second man spoke a small bit of English and was vocal about not wanting to continue his journey without delay.

A Greek police source this morning said they had been asked to pass on the information they had about him to investigators in France.

Paris officials yesterday confirmed that fingerprints from one of the suicide bombers behind the attacks at the Stade de France matched the prints of the first man who registered in Greece in October.

The man who used the name Ahmad Almohammad, 25, is believed to have been using a fake passport.

He arrived in Leros on 3 October on a boat with 198 migrants that had made the seven mile journey from the Turkish coast.

Officers arrested him and took his fingerprints, but on 4 October he was told he would not be prosecuted and was given travel papers that allowed him to book tickets to leave the island.

Rather than wait for the next ferry direct to Athens leaving three days later on 7 October, he and the second man he was with took a small boat to neighbouring island Kalymnos where there was a ferry leaving for the mainland the next day. A group of four others - not thought to have been travelling with them - helped share the cost of the boat.

This is the remains of one of the suicide bombers - which could be Almohammad - who targeted 80,000 fans at the Stade de France during a football match on Friday
