It has now been revealed that the child ISIS soldier who has threatened the UK with new atrocities in a chilling video is the son of a lady muslim convert from London, born by Nigerian parents.
The lady, Grace Khadijah Dare grew up in Lewisham, South London. She was born to Christian parents, Henry and Victoria Dare, but later converted to Islam and married a Swedish ISIS fighter, Abu Bakr.
Together, the couple have had two children, the oldest being the six year old boy, dressed in military fatigues and a black bandanna bearing the white mark of ISIS and chillingly declaring that ‘We will kill kuffar [non believers]’.
Grace’s father Henry Dare, a cab driver, has confirmed that his grandson is ‘definitely’ the boy in the sick ISIS video, the Mail Online reported today.
‘I was surprised when I saw the picture. It’s definitely him. Of course I’m worried but there’s nothing I can do now. I’m not angry – I would never have expected it. I just hope someone is trying to bring them back”, he told The Telegraph.
According to the report, in 2014, Grace posted another shocking photograph of the boy, named Isa, on her Twitter account, holding an AK-47 rifle. The boy was then just four years old.
Isa also has at least one younger sibling, a boy who would now be between two and three years old, who his mother has referred to as a ‘mini mujahid’, or holy warrior.
Grace is believed to have been radicalised online before she started attending the Lewisham Islamic Centre, where Drummer Lee Rigby’s murderers are said to have worshipped, although the mosque denies they were part of the congregation.
Prime Minister David Cameron has described the video as ‘desperate stuff’ from a group that is ‘losing territory’ and ‘increasingly losing anybody’s sympathy’.
