Jihadi Bride Is A Ticking Time Bomb. Don't Let Her Return

The daughter of a British aid worker killed by Islamic State last night warned terror bride Shamima Begum is a “ticking time bomb”.

Begum – the poster girl for the murderous Isis – is being allowed to return to the UK as part of a battle to regain her lost British citizenship.

Bethany Haines, whose dad David was beheaded by a terror cell dubbed The Beatles in 2014, is convinced that 20-year-old Begum still poses a risk.

She turned down an offer to meet Begum during a heart-wrenching trip to Syria last year, which saw Bethany visit jihadi brides at a refugee camp to try to understand their mindset.

Bethany, 23, of Perthshire, said: “From what I gather, Begum still has a strong hatred of the UK. She’s a ticking time bomb.”

David Haines, 44, was helping refugees in a camp near the Turkish border when he was captured in March 2013.

He was held for 18 months before being beheaded by Mohammed Emwazi – the Briton known as Jihadi John – in September 2014.
