British men who travelled to Syria to join ISIS say they ‘want to be put on trial in the UK’

Foreign Affairs Correspondent

Two men who left the UK to join so-called Islamic State have told Channel 4 News that they want to return home to face trial.

The men were part of the first wave of foreign recruits that joined the terrorist organisation – and are now left in legal limbo, with the British government refusing to take back suspects detained in Kurdish prisons in north-eastern Syria.
