EXCLUSIVE: Boy pleaded ‘come and get me’ on phone to grandfather before being forced to take part in execution video.
| 'Tears' ... grandfather of young Isa Dare wept after seeing him in footage |
| As a baby ... Isa was born in London in 2011 |
Isa made the heartbreaking plea over the phone to Sunday, 59, who then wept after seeing him paraded in front of the warped fanatics’ cameras.
His grandson, dressed in military gear and wearing an ISIS bandana, says in the vile propaganda video: “We will kill the kuffar (non-believers) over there.”
Part-time law student Sunday told how he was shocked when he saw the video at the weekend. He said: “That is my grandson, I’d know him anywhere.
“I spoke to him on the phone and he just said, ‘Grandad, come and get me’. “I am devastated they have used my grandson like that they are using him as a pawn.
“Just imagine that little boy saying they are going to kill all the non-believers. He can’t know what he is saying they have brainwashed him.”
Sunday is now appealing to his daughter jihadi bride Khadijah Dare to come home from Syria and “face the music”.
He said: “She must have been forced to make her son do that.”
Isa was born in South London’s King’s College Hospital in 2011, and enjoyed a normal western upbringing for the first few months of his life.
Sunday said he took him to see Arsenal play at the Emirates when he was just six months old.
Choking back tears, he added: “I used to see him every day.
“He would put his head on to my chest as I hugged him. That has been stolen from me these past four years.”
His daughter who fled to Syria with Isa in 2012 was brought up as a Christian by Sunday and his wife Victoria.
She was christened Grace at a church in Lewisham, South East London, and developed a love of gospel, country and pop music.
Her favourite artists included Johnny Cash, Elton John and Queen and she harboured dreams of becoming a psychologist.
However, she converted to Islam in 2010 and Sunday says she began to change dramatically.
Her Bible was handed back and she began to show signs of becoming radicalised.
She is believed to have met Isa’s father at a mosque in London in 2010 and relatives say he was a “good man”.
Sunday who is also known as Henry became so alarmed by the transformation he twice alerted police.
But he says they informed him she could change religion if she wanted. In 2012 she told him she was going to Egypt to study but she secretly fled with her young son to Syria instead.
She changed her name to Khadijah and went on to marry a Swedish terrorist. She has since posted a picture online of Isa holding a rifle. e was also seen with his mum in a documentary as she went shopping clutching an automatic weapon.
Sunday said he last spoke to her two weeks ago. He believes she does not want to be there but is afraid of being sent to prison if she returns home to Britain.
He said: “Isa is my grandson. I can’t disown them. He was a lovely playful child when he was in Britain.
“I just want them back here. She needs to come home and face the music.
I don’t know what they have done to her out there. She changed when she became a Muslim. A couple of weeks ago she phoned me. It’s always from a withheld number. She told me she didn’t like it.
“I think all of the leaders are there by her when she calls because sometimes she doesn’t answer a question I put to her.
“I always tell her to come back to London but she says she is afraid of prison food.” Khadijah has since had another child with Swedish jihadi Abu Bakr, who was killed in combat last year. She was seen comparing AK-47s with him in documentary footage shot near Aleppo in 2013.
With Isa toddling around her as she took the automatic weapon to the shops, she even claimed that she was not oppressed.
She said: “If I was oppressed I wouldn’t be a Muslim right now. “If I thought Islam was an oppressive religion I would have left Islam. Islam has made me free. “Praise be to God, I could not find anyone in the UK who was, you know, willing to just sacrifice their life in this world for the life in the hereafter, for best in the hereafter in fact.”
She said she worked on media studies, film studies, psychology and sociology at college in the UK but started getting abuse for wearing a face veil. Asked what she missed about home she replied: “Junk food, the cakes from the supermarket. The Chinese takeaway and my mum’s food.”
Sunday yesterday made a personal plea for her to come home. In an exclusive Sun video he said: “You’ve got to face the music. She thinks she is going to be arrested when she gets here. “But she has broken the law and should pay the penalty for that.
“Come home. We all love you — come and face the music, you caused it yourself. Please come back with my grandchildren.”
— BRITAIN must take in an extra 3,000 Syrian refugee orphans, an influential Commons committee said yesterday. MPs said they were at risk of being kidnapped by child traffickers and forced into prostitution, the drugs trade or used for child labour.
Stephen Twigg, who chairs the International Development Committee, said the number was on top of the 20,000 David Cameron has already pledged to welcome from Syria over the next five years.
He said: “This is an issue of utmost urgency.”
