:00:55. > :01:00.where most of the men had been living.
:01:01. > :01:07.The Corinthian mountain town of Rippol, were eight of those involved
:01:08. > :01:12.with the attacks in Barcelona came from. In this town of just 10,000
:01:13. > :01:16.people, investigators are asking if this man, Abdelbaki Es Satty, imam
:01:17. > :01:21.of the local mosque, was involved in directing those attacks. One theory
:01:22. > :01:27.being looked into is that the imam was killed in an explosion which
:01:28. > :01:31.destroyed a bomb factory in the town of Alcanar last Wednesday, prompting
:01:32. > :01:36.others to carry out the attacks in Barcelona. Today, police said they
:01:37. > :01:40.found 120 gas canisters at the destroyed house, which they think
:01:41. > :01:43.may have been intended to make a massive bomb. The focus of this
:01:44. > :01:50.investigation is now very much on the imam, Abdelbaki Es Satty.
:01:51. > :01:53.This is the tiny flat in the town where he lived,
:01:54. > :01:57.Anything that was in here has been taken away.
:01:58. > :02:00.Now, according to people at the mosque, he left two months
:02:01. > :02:03.ago on an extended trip to Morocco, but we know from his flatmate here,
:02:04. > :02:06.who doesn't want to be filmed, and from other people,
:02:07. > :02:14.that he was here as recently as last Tuesday, when he suddenly left.
:02:15. > :02:20.All that's left here is his small Koran and his empty bedroom. This
:02:21. > :02:25.morning I spoke to the devastated father of two of the attackers. He
:02:26. > :02:32.blames the imam for radicalising his sons and the others.

:02:37. > :02:46.they've done, but they've left me and their mother with nothing. What
:02:47. > :02:52.happened to my boys? Police across the region are still hunting for the

:03:30. > :03:32.the Catalan police have been giving a number of details. They suggest
:03:33. > :03:38.that the wider plot had been planned for about six months and involved a
:03:39. > :03:42.group of around 12 people. Their plan, according to the police, was
:03:43. > :03:47.to carry out three separate van attacks against targets here in
:03:48. > :03:50.Catalonia. We don't know which targets those are. Police have been
:03:51. > :03:55.getting more information. They say they know who the driver was who
:03:56. > :03:59.carried out the attack in Barcelona, but they haven't disclosed the name
:04:00. > :04:04.of that suspect. The authorities are also continuing to provide care and
:04:05. > :04:07.support to the victims and to the families. There are many people who
