One of the terrorists behind the Paris attacks who is on the run is using a disguise and false name, according to a new report.

Spanish broadcaster RTVE has published a picture it says is being circulated by French police, showing Salah Abdeslam before and after donning the disguise.

The left side shows Abdeslam in a normal outfit and without any accessories, while the right side shows him donning a dark wig and glasses.

Abdeslam, 26, is believed to have been directly involved in the terror attacks at the French capital, which left 130 dead and hundreds of others wounded.

His brother Brahim was one of the suicide bombers, while a younger brother, Mohamed, was arrested by Belgian police but later released without charge.

Abdeslam is on the run and officials think he slipped past police during a routine check near the Belgian border in the early hours of Nov. 14. Two friends are believed to have picked him up from Paris using a rented black VW Polo, and drove him to Brussels. They were let through by police after showing the fake ID. His current whereabouts are not clear.
