Anti-Terror police fear a former glamour model from West Yorkshire may have been groomed online by Isis to become a jihadi bride. Kimberley Miners, 27, who posed topless for The Sun is said to be in communication with a British fighter in Syria using Facebook.
Counter-Terror officers are said to have been monitoring the social media activities of the Bradford resident. Appearing under the alias Aisha Lauren al-Britainiya she has posted images of Muslim women brandishing rifles and other lethal weapons.
In a recently posted image, Ms Miners appears to be fully veiled with only her eyes showing. The former model insists she is concerned about the Syrian children and denies marrying a jihadist. It is thought over 100 women and children have travelled to the Isis-controlled territory.
Ms Miners first came to national attention in 2009, when she was juggling her job as a street cleaner with a career as a topless model. It is said her interest in Islam was sparked by the sudden death of her father, who drowned in 2010. She was deeply affected by his passing and found comfort within the religion and the company of Muslim friends, including another white convert. The former model who deleted two of her Facebook accounts said she had received abuse when wearing the Islamic dress.
The West Yorkshire Anti-Terrorist Squad have refused to comment on Ms Miners' case.
