Police suspect that he entered Bulgaria in June and had accomplices.

But Bulgaria has declined to back Israeli claims that Iran and the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah played a role.

As well as those killed, dozens of people were wounded in the blast.

Shortly after the bombing, Bulgarian authorities released CCTV images of the suspected bomber, but they appeared to contrast with some witness descriptions.

So far no match has been found in international databases for the fingerprints and DNA samples taken after the bombing.
