British family 'heartbroken' over son labelled youngest suicide bomber

The family of a British teenager reportedly killed while fighting for Isis in Iraq said they had been left “utterly devastated and heartbroken by the unspeakable tragedy” and those who sent him to his death had preyed on his “innocence and vulnerability”.

Talha Asmal, who reportedly became Britain’s youngest suicide bomber when he detonated a vehicle fitted with explosives, has been described as “a loving, kind, caring and affable teenager”, who never harboured any ill will against anybody.
