On Friday, the New York Times reported that 16-year-old Su-lay Su from TT was one of the eight terrorists captured during the operations carried out by Syrian Democratic Forces’ Special Operations Team on January 6 and 7.

Su was initially mis-identified as Soulay Noah Su aka Abu Souleiman al-Amriki from America when he was apprehended on the battlefield in Syria with fighters for the Islamic State.

It was later learned that Su was taken to Syria by his mother, Gailon Su, when he was 12 years old. Gailon converted to Islam after becoming romantically involved with Trinidadian Anthony Hamlet.
