Paris 'fixer' believed to be helping Australian ISIL recruits enter Syria

A terrorist "fixer" who allegedly helped some of the Paris attackers enter and leave Europe is believed to be helping Australian ISIL recruits enter the Middle East conflict zone.

Saudi Arabian Tarad Mohammad al-Aljarba, 36, also known as Abu-Muhammad al-Shimali, was appointed "border emir" and serves as a logistic expert who helps Australian, European and other Middle Eastern ISIL supporters enter Syria from Turkey, The Australian reports.

The US State Department has placed a $7 million (US$5 million) bounty on his head and allege that he has had a relationship with ISIL and its predecessor groups since 2005.

Al-Aljarba is thought to have played a key role in the Paris attacks despite the UN Security Council placing economic and arms sanctions on him just weeks before the November 13 atrocities.

He is believed to have helped the alleged mastermind of the attacks, Belgian-Morroccan Abdelhamid Abaaoud, enter Syria and possibly five others leave the caliphate to become suicide bombers.

There are currently believed to be up to 110 Australians fighting for ISIL but it is unclear who al-Aljarba may have helped to reach the battlefields.

ASIO said in a statement that at "least 44 Australians are believed to have been killed as a result of their involvement in the conflict."
