Like all other high profile extremists MI5, 6, 7 - whatever - wanted Jihadi John to work "for us". It doesn't say what he had done originally, to have gone on the agencies' radar? And secondly, when he was barred from leaving Britain multiple times, how then, of a sudden, he managed to flee the country, without anyone knowing, and how it were intelligence guys who broke the news to his family of his eventual travel to Syria?
