A London-born ‘hostage-keeper’ has for the first time admitted the role he played in the so-called Islamic State.
Alexanda Kotey, who has been detained by Kurdish forces for the past 16 months, has now given a public confession about his part in a plot to kill soldiers and police in drive-by shootings at Shepherd’s Bush police station and the Parachute Regiment Territorial Army Barracks at White City in London.
The plot was foiled in 2016 and two British terrorists – Tarik Hassane and Suhaib Majeed – were handed life sentences but ITV News learned Kotey – at the time in Syria – was suspected to be involved.
