A South London couple have been imprisoned for funding terrorism after admitting they sent money to their nephew, an Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) fighter in Syria. The pair also encouraged him to "eradicate" the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK).
Mohammed Iqbal Golamaully, 48, and his wife, Nazimabee Golamaully, 45
admitted they sent money, ยฃ219 (โฌ256), to Zafirr Golamaully and pled guilty to funding terrorism, after originally claiming the money was for his university studies.
Zafirr Golamaully is a well-known IS fighter, who goes by the name Paladin of Jihad
online. He left his family home in Mauritius in March 2014 and travelled to Syria.
Mohammed is originally from Mauritius and worked as a manager of a hospital, while Nazimabee is English and was a former IT consultant.
