Father of jihadi girl had no idea about her terror links... then saw her mugshot on TV



The devastated father of France’s most wanted woman handed himself in to police, declaring, ‘That is my daughter’, it was revealed last night.

Mohamed Boumeddiene went to the authorities just hours after seeing his daughter Hayat’s mugshot on television – released following her husband’s murder of a policewoman and later four hostages in a Parisian deli.
Mr Boumeddiene is said to be shocked and heartbroken by his daughter’s alleged involvement in the terror siege. She is thought to have fled France and made her way to Syria.
Neighbours say he has since locked himself in his flat, disconnected his phone and has been heard crying and saying: ‘I don’t know if she is dead or alive.’
A friend said: ‘He went to the mosque on Friday to pray and then took himself to the police station after he saw her picture on the television.’ 
Mr Boumeddiene, a delivery driver, is understood to have told police he had no idea what his daughter was planning and was ‘shocked’. He was questioned but not arrested.
Police described Hayat, 26, who has reportedly received terror training, as ‘armed and dangerous’
Her husband Amedy Coulibaly, 32, was part of the same terror cell as the Kouachi brothers – Cherif, 32, and Said, 34 – who killed 12 at the Charlie Hebdo magazine offices.
