I want to share this intriguing news I have read today. It’s all about a girl from Britain who was trafficked to Islamic State territory in Syria and then raped and impregnated by her jihadi ‘husband’ is among former UK nationals stranded in a refugee camp. Campaigners Reprieve say the majority of British women in the country were sexually exploited, with many under the age of 18 at the time. A report by the group, which has accused the Government of ‘failing’ trafficking victims, says among those in a camp is a girl known as Nadia who was taken to Syria by a male relative at 12 and was repeatedly raped until she fell pregnant at 15.
