A former Isil bride who was married to one of the jihadist group’s senior leaders has returned to Germany and is living freely in Hamburg, it has emerged.

Omaima Abdi was married to Dennis Cuspert, a former rapper also known as Deso Dogg who was Isil’s chief German spokesman until his death in January 2018.

She was tracked down in Hamburg by an Arabic television news channel, which also broadcast mobile phone pictures in which she is seen carrying a gun in Syria and posing with Cuspert.

The 34-year-old Abdi now lists her occupation on Linked In as translator and event manager and reportedly no longer wears a hijab or headscarf.

In a case that is bound to be compared to that of the British Isil bride Shamima Begum, questions are being asked over how Ms Abdi was able to return to Germany without being detained and why she has not faced any prosecution for her time with Isil.

Ms Abdi was traced in Hamburg by Jenan Moussa, a Lebanese reporter for Dubai’s al-Aan television network. In her report, Ms Moussa said she was passed data obtained data from the former Isil bride's mobile phone by an unnamed party.
