'Jihadi John' made him do tango in Syrian prison

October 13, 2015 02:44

A Danish photographer who endured months of torture at the hands of Islamic State extremists says the terrorist killer known as 'Jihadi John' forced him to stand for days and dance the Tango at a prison in Syria.

Daniel Rye Ottosen, 26 -- the last ISIS hostage to be released alive last June -- revealed details about his experience in captivity in an interview Sunday with Denmark radio network DR.

The identity of 'Jihadi John' -- the British terrorist infamous for beheading at least 4 hostages -- became public last spring. Mohammed Emwazi, 26, was born in Kuwait, raised in London, and graduated from Westminster University before going to Syria in 2013 to fight with ISIS.

He has become the face of several gruesome propaganda videos wearing a mask and all black, and wielding a knife before decapitating high profile hostages captured by ISIS terrorists.
