According to the ATS, the girl got attracted to the IS ideology after watching a documentary on television and subsequently following related news on Al Jazeera channel, reports Zee. “Later, she used the Internet to get in touch with ISIS contacts and got in touch with about 200 young people from different countries. An interrogation of her revealed that she was told to come to Syria for medical education and for further initiation,” Barge had said, reports the Hindustan Times.
