Riedijk is waiting for a six-year prison sentence when he returns to the Netherlands. He was convicted in absentia for joining a terrorist organization.
The Dutch IS-fighter Yago Riedijk wants to live together in the Netherlands with his very young jihad bride Shamima Begum and their newborn baby.
The London Shamima Begum (now 19) caused a lot of commotion in Great Britain when she announced from a Kurdish refugee camp that she did not regret that she had joined IS, but did expect that the red carpet would be rolled out in England or the Netherlands for her return.
