Radicalised mum took her son, eight, and daughter, three, to join ISIS



Rehana Begum Islam, from Enfield, north London, abandoned her husband (pictured with their children, whose identities are protected) of 14 years and took a flight from Heathrow Airport to Istanbul with her two children before crossing the border into Syria.
She is believed to have been helped by Syrian Mohammed al-Rashed, who was arrested last week on suspicion of getting three east London schoolgirls - Shamima Begum, 15, Kadiza Sultana, 16, and Amira Abase, 15 - across the border. Mrs Islam's details were found on al-Rashed's laptop - showing she and her children have been with ISIS fanatics for five weeks. Her devastated husband Azizul, 36, said: 'It's really hard for me. I haven't seen my kids for more than one month. My question is why did she go there?'
