Tareena Shakil: The Story of a Dangerous ISIS Woman Who Becomes a Model
Shakil has previously admitted knowing of Islamic State atrocities before she left for Syria but said she was groomed by recruiters online. It’s not something you’re aware of that at this moment I’m being recruited or at this precise moment I’m vulnerable,’ she said. ‘That awareness comes after, and it came after for me. And I remember feeling really sad, bitter, and taken advantage of. And also ashamed of myself for having allowed it to happen. When you lived under ISIS, conversations were often listened to, and you were generally expected to behave in a certain way,’ she said. There were two girls who were unruly, and men came in a van and took them away; we never saw them again.’
