A woman who was left an orphan at 19 when her parents were murdered by a Muslim suicide bomber who attacked Manchester Arena in 2017 has said that Jihadi broodmare Semima Begum should not be allowed to return to the UK.

Alex Klis, now 21, lost her mother and father in Islamic State inspired bomb attack on Arianna Grande’s concert in Manchester and is now raising her 14-year-old sister alone.

Ms Klis said that the Islamic State supporting Begum who left to join the Caliphate in 2015 had “made her bed”.

Begum has attempted to justify the Manchester Arena bombing which killed 22 people, most of whom were children, and wounded over 800 more by saying it was merely in retaliation for airstrikes against Islamic State militants.

While Begum has lost her British citizenship, British Home Secretary Sajid Javid has said the I.S members baby could be given a UK passport which could effectively allow her to return.
