Amira Abase, Shamima Begum, and Kadiza Sultana (also referred to as Bethnal Green trio[1]) are three British women who previously attended the Bethnal Green Academy in London before leaving home in February 2015 to join the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). According to the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, they were amongst an estimated 550 women and girls from Western countries who had travelled to join ISIL[2]—part of what some[3] have called "a jihadi, girl-power subculture".[4]
