"They made me wash toilets"-Disgruntled ISIS recruits cry out after being turned to domestic servants
Disgruntled jihadists who travelled to Iraq and Syria to join the Islamic State are running back home after complaining they were forced to do menial tasks instead of fighting.In a selection of their messages, leaked to the newspaper Le Figaro..Daily Independent reports
One said:
'I'm fed up to the back teeth. My iPod no longer works out here. I have got to come home.'
Another wrote: '
I've done hardly anything but hand out clothes and food,' he said. 'Winter is beginning. It's starting to get tough.'
A third fighter said he was 'sick' of his time with ISIS, adding: 'They make me do the washing up'.
They and dozens of other recruits are reportedly now
working with a group of French lawyers who have collected texts and messages that suggest the jihadists feel 'cheated' into joining ISIS.
It came as Majeed (above)was arrested and charged by India's elite National Investigation Agency (NIA) with terror-related offences when he arrived back home.
Majeed told NIA officers he was sidelined by the jihadists for whom he fetched water and performed other lowly tasks such as cleaning toilets, instead of taking part in the deadly offensive like he wanted.
He phoned his family to say he wanted to come home after suffering an unexplained bullet wound for which he did not get proper medical attention, the agency said late Sunday.
'Only after I begged them, I was taken to a hospital,'There was neither a holy war nor any of the preachings in the holy book were followed
Tanvir Sheikh, the father of one of Majeed's friends who was still missing in Iraq, said he felt betrayed by his son.'He had got a job offer from Kuwait with a salary of three lakh rupees (£3,000) but he ignored that and instead took up arms.
'Now what happens to his future?' Sheikh told the Indian Express newspaper on Monday.
'I feel let down by my son. He had a bright career ahead of him but he took advantage of our love and betrayed us.'
