Now British TOWIE fan who fled ISIS militants with her 16-month-old son may be sent BACK to Syria
The UK Daily Mail ^ | January 18, 2015 | OLLIE GILLMAN

The Towie fan who fled ISIS terrorists with her toddler son could be sent back to Syria by Turkish authorities.

Tareena Shakil, 25, ran away to Syria last year after telling relatives she was going on holiday to Spain with her 16-month-old son Zaheem.

But she escaped back across the Turkish border after, she claims, the militants tried to force her into marrying a one-legged fighter.

However, instead of being deported to Britain, Shakil, from Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire, might be sent back to Syria and into the clutches of ISIS.

(snip)

Shakil is being held at a facility on the border town of Gaziantep and her father has flown out to join her, as has her estranged husband Sam.

Mohammed, her 42-year-old father, has previously told how his daughter was a one-time Spice Girls fan, a school prefect and Girl Guide and was so fascinated with ITV reality show The Only Way Is Essex that she travelled 150 miles to buy clothes at a shop run by one of its stars.

Her brother Tareem, 22, said: 'At first no one suspected anything, then she said she was at the border of Syria. She sent us messages saying she'd gone over for a new life, that she had been radicalised.

'She said she wanted to live in the way of Allah. She was promised a good life with a good husband. She wanted to live under Sharia law.

'But it wasn't like that. Then she was texting saying she might not make it back. She was messaging, "Please help me, I made a stupid mistake. Please Dad, will you come here and get me?" He was planning to go out there, but she made the escape herself.'

That’s a possibility too. I don’t know the answer.

Did you not notice: She’s in Turkey! Denouncing Islam there isn’t a way to win her freedom.

The only place you are given mulligans is on the golf course. Perhaps that’s why Obama spends so much time golfing.

I am guessing she is dead if she returns.

Too bad, so sad, tough toenails.

Rufous-sided Towhee

A Towie is slang for a fan of The Only Way Is Essex TV show.

“’She said she wanted to live in the way of Allah. She was promised a good life with a good husband. She wanted to live under Sharia law.”

It’s hard to free fools from chains they revere.

She was hoping for a three-legged one. Oh, well, can't pick and choose once you've gone jihad...

She was promised a good life with a good husband.

She should have tried a dating web site instead.
