		</div><p>Shamima Begum’s Dutch husband says he wants to return to the Netherlands with her and their newborn son.</p>
<p>Islamic Sate fighter Yago Riedijk, 27, is being held in a Kurdish-run detention centre in northern Syria.</p>
<p>His wife, who is 19 and has had three children, is reportedly living in a refugee camp near the Iraqi border.</p>
<p>Ms Begum was 15 when she ran away from her home in east London to join IS in 2015.</p>
<p>They married before she had turned 16 and Riedijk was 23.</p>
<p>The pair are said to have fled Baghouz, the group’s last foothold in eastern Syria, as its territory collapsed in recent months.</p>
<p>Riedijk, who is said to have rejected IS, was found in the detention centre by the BBC.</p>

<p>Asked if he thought marrying a girl of that age was acceptable, he said: “To be honest, when my friend came and said there was a girl who was interested in marriage, I wasn’t that interested because of her age, but I accepted the offer anyway.</p>
<p>“We sat down and she seemed in a good state of mind. It was her own choice, she was the one who asked to look for a partner for her.</p>
<p>“Then I was invited and yeah, she was very young and it might have been better for her to wait a bit. But she didn’t, she chose to get married and I chose to marry her.”</p>
<p>Ms Begum, who said she wants to return to the UK, has been stripped of her British citizenship.</p>
