Bethany Haines, 27, paid tribute to her dad at a service to mark 10 years since he was killed by IS terrorists.
The daughter of murdered aid worker David Haines has told a memorial service “the pain has never gone”. Bethany Haines, 27, paid tribute to the dad, who was killed by IS terrorists in 2014, after being captured the year before.
She said her dad would not have wanted to be remembered as “the man in the orange jumpsuit” but as someone who loved his family. Bethany also told how she was inspired by a brother and sister she met on a trip to Syria in 2019 who had witnessed the massacre of several members of their family in their home but had created something positive by turning their living room into a library and community hub.
David was 44 when captured by militants in Syria in 2013 while delivering aid to the war-torn country. The father of two was beheaded in 2014 after being held by a terrorist cell dubbed The Beatles because of their English accents. Footage of the murder was posted online. His remains have never been discovered.
