But now a controversy has arisen regarding another BBC documentary. This time BBC has made this documentary about ‘Jihadi bride’. This is the same jihadi bride who joined Islamic State (ISIS) in the year 2015 when she was only 15 years old and studying in a school but she fled to UK and joined ISIS. After joining ISIS, she married the fighters there. This is the reason why she is known as ‘Jihadi bride’.
Why controversy?

Meanwhile, the devastation of IS started in Syria. Shamima Begum, now 23, wants to return to Britain, but the government won’t allow it. His return to Britain is also pending in court.
