Towie fan who fled Britain to join Isis fighters - PHOTO

Tareena Shakil, 25, is seen grinning alongside 14-month-old son Zaheem in a picture sent to her distraught family back home in Burton on Trent.Shakil and her son have been given a room by ISIS warlords in Raqqa, where she fled to become a 'jihadi bride'.Her father Mohammed, 42, said she sent him the picture to show they had arrived but she has since cut off all contact. He told The Sun: 'She sent this last week after she arrived and she has now cut off contact. She thinks they are safe there but they are not. She said before she left that ISIS would provide housing and social security.The one-time Spice Girls fan, school prefect and Girl Guide was so fascinated with the ITV reality show that she travelled 150 miles to buy clothes at a shop run by one of its stars.Her parents said she was wearing items she bought there when she set off for Syria, lying to her family that she was taking her 14-month-old son on holiday to Spain.But secretly she had become obsessed with extremist propaganda she found online. In terrifying messages home, she told them 'so many people died' when they 'got shot at the border' but that she and her son Zaheem made it because she 'ran across'.It is feared Miss Shakil plans to marry a jihadi in the Islamic State stronghold of Raqqa, in the latest case of a British Muslim woman joining the group that murdered UK hostages Alan Henning and David Haines.Miss Shakil grew up in Burton-on-Trent in Staffordshire.'Tareena did drama and was in the Guides,' her father told The Sun. 'She loved the Spice Girls and TOWIE.'Mr Shakil said she did a psychology degree and got married, although she later divorced.But around four months ago she set up a Facebook page under the name Tameena al Amirah and started posting extremist messages, including images of Islamist fighters and the IS black flag, and calling herself a 'slave to Allah'.Last week she set off with Zaheem, telling her family she was going to Spain. In reality she bought a ticket to Turkey, from where she crossed the porous border into Syria.'There was no reason to suspect,' her father said. 'She left wearing jeans and a top she bought in a shop owned by one of the TOWIE stars. My little grandson shouldn't be going through this.'Miss Shakil has told her family she is in Raqqa and can never return. One message reads: 'I can't come back there now … we can't. Tell her don't cry. Read the Koran, I love you mummy!'Of her journey, she wrote: 'So many people died coming. They got shot at the border. But we made it. We ran across the border in the blazing sun.' (dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.Az
