‘Doctor Jihad’s’ family ‘devastated’ by his decision to join the caliphate


​The Australian’s Mohammad Alfares says Tareq Kamleh, more commonly known as ‘Doctor Jihad ’, left his family “devastated” when he left Australia to join the caliphate.

​“My colleague Paul Garvey had the opportunity to sit down with the father yesterday, and he spoke about the hurt, the devastation, that they went through because they raised a doctor,” Mr Alfares told Sky News host Peta Credlin.

​“They were very proud of him.

​“So for him to betray them and travel into the caliphate with a bloodthirsty terrorist organisation was devastating for them.

​“And they’re still very much suffering to this day about this decision.”
