Brit JIHADI boasts of killing FIVE

A UK fighter in Syria who once dreamed of becoming Britain’s first Asian prime minister has boasted of his involvement in the murder of five people.

According to the British Daily Star, Reyaad Khan, 20, using the ¬pseudonym Abu Dujana RK, made the claims in a series of posts on Twitter last week.

The former student came to ¬prominence last month when he ¬ appeared in a 13-minute recruitment video for ¬jihadist group ISIS, which ¬recently changed its name to the -Islamic State (IS).

But now we can reveal he has gloated about participating in a raid on the home of the leader of a rival al-Qaida-linked group known as Jabhat Al- Nusra (JAN).

The A-grade student, who left Cardiff earlier this year, said the attack took place near the eastern Syrian city of Deir-ez-Zur and that his victim tried to ¬escape by donning a dress and pretending to be a woman.

The baby-faced fighter tweeted: “We killed the JN amir in deir whilst he was dressed as a woman trying to escape. You die the way you lived and this guys dress had -sequins.”

Further messages online by Khan ¬included images of the corpses of four other men who are thought to be ¬associates of the JAN commander.

He added: “JN guys we caught & ¬executed. This is how they looked less than an hr l8er.

“Still think JN r knights of the ¬Ummah (Muslim community?)

Khan also posted images that claimed to show documents seized from the house during the raid, while a ¬colleague added two pictures of a dead man ¬lying on the floor.

Earlier, he warned: “My advise to hardmans who want money and power and are considering fighting #IS. Don’t start a war you can’t finish. Look at those who tried.

“Whilst those who hate us exhaust their keyboards, we are actually doing something practical and making progress.” On Thursday, he posted a picture of a snub-nosed Kalashnikov AK-47 automatic assault rifle, inset, which was the weapon favoured by al-Qaida founder Osama bin Laden.

The caption underneath said: “Check this little badboy out”.

Until recently, his Facebook page ¬appeared to represent a typical youth’s life with complaints about homework, chores and also his mother nagging him.

And in October 2010 he wrote: “i need 2 become the 1st Asian Prime ¬Minister!”

Last month Khan was seen in an IS recruitment video alongside two other Britons, Nasser Muthana, 20, also from Cardiff, and Aberdeen student Abdul Raqib Amin, 26.

The video was entitled “There is no life without ¬jihad”.

In it they called on their “brothers” in the UK to martyr themselves for Allah.

Khan said: “Are you willing to sacrifice the fat job you’ve got, the big car you’ve got, the family you have?

“Are you willing to ¬ sacrifice this for the sake of ¬Allah?

Birmingham Labour MP Khalid Mahmood has said at least 1,500 Brits have been recruited by IS.

He said last month: “I imagine 1,500 certainly would be the lower end.”

IS launched a surprise ¬offensive in Iraq last month, ¬capturing large swathes of territory in the north of the country.

It is now threatening an assault on the capital Baghdad.

IS has since demolished checkpoints along the border between Syria and Iraq and has declared the areas that it controls to be an Islamic State.

It also announced that its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was the Caliph – or leader – of Muslims worldwide.
