Garda review after Irish IS fighter captured
Garda security units are expected to conduct a fresh review into a naturalised Irish citizen who was captured fighting for Islamic State (IS) in Syria.
Alexandr Ruzmatovich Bekmirzaev, one of five militants arrested by Kurdish forces, left Ireland in 2013 and, at the time, was considered a person of “significant interest” to Garda Security and Intelligence (S&I).
