UK: University concludes ‘Jihadi John’ image leak probe: ‘Extremely troubled by the data breach’

Posted on May 20, 2015June 26, 2025 by Dissent

William Turvill reports:

The University of Westminster has “concluded” an investigation into the source of a leaked picture of Islamic State fighter Mohammed Emwazi.

The institution, attended by the man dubbed “Jihadi John”, said it was “extremely troubled” after the image from Emwazi’s student records appeared on Sky News and then in the rest of the media.

“Jihadi John”, who featured in a number of IS beheading videos, was exposed by the media as former University of Westminster computer programming student Emwazi at the end of February.
