The daughter of murdered aid worker Alan Henning came face to face with a member of the so-called Islamic State terror cell known as The Beatles as he was jailed for life over his role in the murder of US hostages in Syria.

Alexanda Amon Kotey, 38, originally from Paddington, London, showed no emotion as judge Thomas Selby Ellis delivered his verdict at Alexandria District Court, Virginia, while members of his victims’ families watched on.

He pleaded guilty to a host of charges relating to US victims only, although the families of other murdered hostages, including British humanitarians David Haines and Salford's Alan Henning, read shocking impact statements to the court.

Mr Henning, a dad-of-two, was an Eccles taxi driver turned humanitarian aid worker when he was kidnapped while delivering aid to Syria in 2013 and became the fourth Western hostage killed by Islamic State 11 months later.
