Niser bin Muhammad Nasr Nawar

Nizar bin Muhammad Nasar Nawar (1978–2002), an alleged member of the Tunisian Combat Group, was accused of carrying out the 2002 Ghriba synagogue bombing, after planning its execution while living in Montreal, Canada.

Life Raised by his mother in Ben Gardane, Nizar Nawar was a "mediocre" student who never completed high school. His father, who moved to Lyon, France, in 1971, visited the family routinely, but was unable to help his son gain an entry visa to France in 1999, since he could not prove he had the financial capacity to support him. where he told his family he'd been accepted into a travel agency school.

Early on 11 April 2002, he and a colleague drove the truck loaded with natural gas canisters behind a German tourist bus near the synagogue. whom he asked to pray for him. He also had a phone call with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. More than 30 others were wounded.

Following the blast, Tunisian officials identified his remains through dental records.

Seven months after the attack, his parents, brother and brother-in-law were arrested in France under anti-terrorism laws, while authorities investigated if they had any connection to the bombing. There were reports that Nawar had written his brother a letter urging him to "finish what he had started, and die a martyr".
