ISIS recruiter Sally Jones has had her desperate pleas to return to the UK denied.

The so-called White Widow became the leading female recruitment officer for IS after moving to Raqqa and marrying a now-dead jihadist in 2004.

Jones, 47, has remained at large since her husband, Birmingham extremist Junaid Hussain , was killed in a US drone strike in 2015.

Now, according to another military wife, known only as 'Aisha' - the former punk rocker is desperate to return home, the Mirror reports.

Despite her pleas, IS leaders are denying her escape on the basis she is military wife.

Speaking to Sky News about her contact with Jones, Aisha said: "She was crying and wants to get back to Britain but ISIS is preventing her because she is now a military wife. She told me she wish to go to her country.

"She lost her husband in a battle last year. She has one boy."

It has previously been reported her son JoJo, now around 12-years-old, has been used as a child fighter and carried out chilling executions.

Jones was originally from from Chatham, Kent, and was a guitarist in all-girl rock band Krunch. She reportedly lived on welfare and worked as a perfume saleswoman for L’Oreal.

Following her husband's death in Raqqa, Syria, she tweeted that she was proud her "husband was killed by the biggest enemy of Allah".

She added that she would "never love anyone but him".

On September 28, 2015, the United Nations sanctioned Jones as an agent operating on behalf of a terrorist organisation.

She has used her Twitter account to spread propaganda for the group, and has tweeted of her wish to behead a Western prisoner in Syria and behead Christians with a "blunt knife".

Earlier this year the former punk rocker issued terrifying threats on social media as a response to US-led coalition airstrikes on ISIS forces in Syria and Iraq.

She wrote: "To be honest I wouldn't go into Central London through June ... or even July well to be honest I wouldn't go there at all especially by Tube."

Jones also wrote: "U can't just sit there with ur tea & scones ordering RAF drone strikes on UK brothers with no comeback from the Islamic state."

Jones is one of the world's most wanted terrorists and is believed to be on a hit list of 20 jihadis who will be targeted by the SAS in Syria, according to a report citing military sources.

She is understood to have ordered "hackers" to compile a dossier showing the names and addresses of 76 of the most prominent unmanned flying vehicle (UAV) operators in the US Airforce.

It also emerged that Jones has been training WOMEN jihadis for attacks on the UK and Europe and also encourages women to join the so-called Caliphate on social media.

She has also previously hinted that she wanted to find “paradise” by becoming an ISIS suicide bomber.
