British Schools Fear Children Could Flee UK During Easter Holidays to Join ISIS
More than a dozen parents have told headteachers of two London secondary schools that they fear their children have been radicalized and could flee the country to join the Islamic State or other terror groups in the Middle East.
The two headteachers told Nazir Afzal, who was the chief crown prosecutor for northwest England until Tuesday, that some teenagers might be planning to join the Islamic State, also known as ISIS or ISIL, as the schools break for Easter, according to The Independent.
"Both [headteachers] said they were scared of the Easter break and would be very relieved if all their pupils came back after the holidays," Afzal was quoted as saying....
