New Delhi, October 9

A youth from Azamgarh in Uttar Pradesh, who had joined IS to fight in Iraq, wants to return home and has contacted his family to facilitate it.

The youth, in his late 20s, had gone to ISIS-held areas about six months ago through Turkey, ostensibly to fight for the Middle-East terrorist group after getting attracted to it online.

But officials familiar with the development said, he soon got frustrated with activities of ISIS and decided to get back home. — PTI
