She disputed the decision to revoke her British citizenship after being discovered in a Syrian prison facility, claiming that she had been a victim of trafficking and that the UK Home Office had neglected to look into this part of her case. Nevertheless, the appeal was rejected, therefore Begum is still unable to go back to the UK.
Due to this, her case has again been in the news with many people trying to learn more about her militant husband. Given the fact that while in Syria, Begum, who is now 23 years old, married an ISIS terrorist, her husband whose name is Yago Riedijk, has also become a trending search topic.
Many people are now trying to find out more about him. So, here’s what we know about him:
Who is Yago Riedijk?
30 year old Yago Riedijk is a notorious ISIS militant. He has been in the news because his wife Shamima Begum recently lost an appeal against the UK government’s decision to revoke her citizenship.
He was born and raised in Arnhem, Holland. But, in October 2014, he departed for Syria. Ankie Riedijk is the mother of Begum’s Dutch jihadist husband Yago Riedijk.
Yago Riedijk was married to Shamima Begum, a former ISIS bride who was born in the UK. Three children were born into the marriage but all died when they were young. While their status is unclear, it appears that they are no longer married. In a July 2021 interview, he declared that he was still married to Begum and that they had agreed on a dowry.
Before converting to Islam and joining ISIS, Riedijk was raised in a “beautiful” middle-class household, according to his neighbors in Arnhem.
Where is he now?
In a 2019 interview with The Times, Shamima Begum stated that she last saw her husband, Yago Riedijk, when they both fled the village of Baghuz, which was ISIS’ final stronghold, in early February of that year.
While on the run, Riedijk surrendered to a group of fighters who were aligned with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). After his surrender, Begum was taken to the al-Hawl refugee camp, while Riedijk was held in another camp. Currently, Riedijk is being held behind bars in a prison in Syria that is run by Kurdish authorities.
