(ITV) A British man who is alleged to have been part of an Islamic State execution cell dubbed “The Beatles” is due to be returned to the UK after officials in Turkey confirmed he is no longer in custody there.
Aine Davis is accused of being a member of the gang of Londoners responsible for kidnapping ISIS hostages in Syria, beheading some victims on camera before posting the videos online.
Authorities in Turkey have confirmed to ITV News that Davis has been released from a maximum-security prison in Ankara after serving his seven-and-a-half-year sentence for being a member of ISIS.
Labelled the “fourth Beatle,” Davis is thought to have been scheduled for deportation to the UK following his release, but it is unclear whether he has yet been transferred to the UK.
