In light of reports that Australia’s most senior Islamic State militant Mohammed Ali Baryalei has been killed in the Middle East, details about the terrorist’s past have come to light.
One source told ABC about Baryalei’s love for gambling, women, drugs and painted him as someone who mixed with some questionable characters.
‘He gambled a lot … He once won $8,000 or $9,000 on the pokies, then played it back down … and he loved cocaine.,’ the source told the 7.30 program. […]
Meantime the Federal government is still scrambling to confirm reports that Baryalei – the most senior Australian militant in the Islamic State terror group – has in fact been killed.
‘We are currently seeking to confirm whether the 16th Australian foreign fighter has indeed been killed in this conflict,’ Foreign Minister Julie Bishop told parliament on Wednesday.
