Begum, below, from east London, was 15 when she flew out to join the Islamic terrorists. She is currently at the centre of a legal row over whether she should be allowed to return to the UK despite being stripped of her citizenship.

And last night it was reported that Begum’s mother-in-law believes she should be allowed back into the UK.

The teenager married Yago Riedijk, an Islamic convert from the Netherlands, just ten minutes after meeting him.
