British ISIS bride Shamima Begum begs for 'second chance', says decision to join the terror outfit was a 'mistake'

Shamima Begum, the British teenager who left her home in east London in February 2015 to join Islamic State says she’d like to be 'an example of how someone can change'
PUBLISHED FEB 25, 2019

British woman Shamima Begum who left the country to join ISIS is now begging for a "second chance" after having finally apologized for her "mistake" in joining the radical terrorist outfit. Begum left her East London home when she was just 15 and went to Syria with two of her friends to join the brutal caliphate in December 2014.

She was discovered four years later by a British journalist in a Syrian refugee camp, The Sun reports. The embattled jihadi bride, who married Dutch militant Yago Riedijk, 23, in Syria, has said she never planned to return to Britain when she left the country with two school friends back in February 2015.
