The father of ISIS bride Shamima Begum has apologised for her joining the group and is pleading with the British Government to allow her back into the country.

Ms Begum travelled to Syria when she was aged 15 in February 2015, with two other schoolgirls, so she could join the terror group . 

Ms Begum's son Jerah died 18 days old on Thursday after suffering pneumonia in a refugee camp in northern Syria. 

Ahmed Ali, 60, said his daughter, now 19, 'did wrong' by joining the group but did so 'without realising it' because she was 'under age'.
