British 'Primark jihadist' killed fighting with Islamic State
2014-08-11
[TELEGRAPH.CO.UK] A former Primark worker from Portsmouth has become the latest Briton to be killed in the Middle East fighting for the feared Jihadist group Islamic State.

Muhammad Hamidur Rahman, 25, whose father runs an Indian Restaurant travelled to Syria via Turkey telling his family he was going to help deliver humanitarian aid.

But he was recruited by the terror group ISIS which is fighting to establish an Islamic caliphate and already controls vast swathes of Syria and Iraq.

According to his family, Rahman was killed during an intense firefight with troops loyal to the Assad regime around a fortnight ago.

His father Abdul Hannan, 52, said the family had received a text message from someone who had been fighting alongside his son to confirm that he had been killed.
