February 14, 2016 14:24

Security services in the UK are hot on the heels of a British Islamic State terror suspect in Turkey after he mistakenly disclosed his whereabouts by joining the Linkedin professional network.

Rabah Tahari, 46, from Birmingham is believed to have recruited the so-called "Jihadi John" British Muslim terrorist as the leader of an extremist group linked to Al Qaeda.

British and Turkish security services are concerned that Tahari has moved to Turkey where he gave away his location when he joined Linkedin recently.

There are growing fears that Tahari, 46, who is the leader of a network of fighters, will make his way back to Europe to carry out terrorist attacks, reported 'The Sunday Telegraph'.

It is estimated that up to 50 British terrorists are hiding out in Turkey, where they can plan terror attacks against the West safe from allied bombing.
