(Arab News) A British-Egyptian man accused of fighting for Daesh has been found dead in prison.
Abdel-Majed Abdel Bary, 32, was on trial in Madrid charged with numerous terrorist offenses and online fraud in order to raise money for the group. He was found dead in his cell on Wednesday at El Puerto de Santa Maria prison in Cadiz.
He was described by police as one of Daesh’s “most wanted foreign terrorist fighters” after a photograph emerged of him in Raqqa in 2014 holding the severed head of a Syrian regime soldier.
The image, posted on social media, was accompanied by the caption: “Chillin’ with my homie or what’s left of him.”
