Alleged Italian ISIS member handed to Rome
2019-06-30
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Kurdish authorities in northeastern Syria have handed to Italia one of its citizens accused of belonging to ISIS, a front man said on Saturday.

"Italian jihadist Samir Bougana (aka Abu Abdullah) who had been captured fleeing ISIS and had been imprisoned since then, was handed over to Italian government," said Mustafa Bali, a front man for the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

He said the transfer had been made on Rome’s request.

He did not specify when it took place or whether or not the suspected bad boy had already left the country.

Bougana - also known as Abu Hureyre al-Muhajir or Abu Abdullah al-Muhajir - was first captured by Kurdish fighters in Syria in August 2018 as he tried to flee into The Sick Man of Europe Turkey

He had allegedly been involved in weapons shipments to ISIS.

His transfer is part of a wider effort by the Kurdish administration to rid itself of the dregs of the ISIS proto-state.

Following the collapse of the group’s "caliphate" in March, alleged ISIS fighters from nearly 50 countries have been detained in Syria and Iraq.

Over 11,000 of their family members are being held in Syria’s al-Hol camp alone.

But repatriation is a sensitive issue for Western nations such as La Belle France and Britannia, which have experienced attacks by homegrown bandidos turbans and have little interest in seeing more return.

There are also worries that it could prove difficult to successfully prosecute fighters in Europe
