Muslim group sends letters to Govt:
Bring home 25 Isis survivors

"Bring these 25 chil­dren and adults home from Syr­ia." That ap­peal was made in let­ters to Gov­ern­ment on May 24 and up to last Fri­day by the Con­cerned Mus­lims of T&T (CMTT) group seek­ing to bring "home" chil­dren and adults who are rel­a­tives of Is­lam­ic State (Isis) fight­ers.

They have been at the al Hol refugee camp in north­east­ern Syr­ia fol­low­ing Isis' col­lapse to in­ter­na­tion­al forces in the last year—and rel­a­tives of theirs in T&T have asked CMTT to seek their re­turn.

The in­di­vid­u­als are con­nect­ed to T&T na­tion­als who joined Isis in con­flict zones over the pe­ri­od the ter­ror­ist group re­cruit­ed peo­ple world­wide from 2012.

The chil­dren range in ages from one to nine years and some were born in Syr­ia re­cent­ly.
