A football-loving lad who grew up fixing motorbikes in an unremarkable corner of West London went on to become one of the most vicious members of the ISIS Beatles terror cell.
El Shafee Elsheikh, 34, one of four senior ISIS militants nicknamed after the 60s foursome due to their UK accents, is said to have taken delight in doling out extreme violence against his captives in Iraq and Syria.
After Elsheikh was jailed for life by a Virginia court today, a lawyer representing the victims' families branded the cell "genuine psychopaths without any moral value".
