Reprieve has been monitoring the woman's case and said she was “a victim of trafficking, taken to Syria by a male relative when she was a young girl”
A British woman taken to Syria by ISIS and her child have been repatriated from a camp in the north-east of the country back to the UK. They are the first British nationals to be allowed to return since the end of the ISIS war in 2019 following a ground breaking decision.
Reprieve has been monitoring the woman's case and said she was “a victim of trafficking, taken to Syria by a male relative when she was a young girl” and that “she and her child have suffered extreme trauma”. All three of Ms Begum’s children are now deceased and her youngest, Jarrah, died shortly after her arrival at al-Hawl camp due to the terrible conditions. Last month, a six-year-old child reportedly died after being run over by a truck in the camp, while other children recently witnessed their mother’s dead body abandoned by the side of the road as killings in the camp increased by 250 per cent in the second quarter of this year.
