THE parents of Scots jihadi girl Aqsa Mahmood have issued a heartfelt appeal for her return.

Muzaffar and Khalida Mahmood said that the family have been "betrayed"after she fled to Syria to marry an ISIS fighter.

They also said she had become a "bedroom radical" after becoming outraged by the Syrian conflict.

 

Speaking directly to their daughter, they said: "We still love you, Aqsa, but we now have to put your family, your brother and sisters first as you have betrayed us, our community and the people of Scotland when you took this step.
