Four Swedish women with ties to the Islamic State and their nine children will now travel home to Sweden. The women have taken refuge from Syria to Turkey, where they were detained.

At least two of the women have been smuggled out of the Al-Hol camp in Syria, SVT has been reported.

– Police, Säpo, social services, migration networks and health must be ready to receive them as soon as they land, says the leader of the Swedish Center against Violent Extremism, Jonas Trolle.

It says the police will conduct the first interrogations of the women as soon as they land. The police also want to take care of children.

– It’s about the children’s perspective. They must be cared for and receive help, especially not to run the risk of becoming radicalized, says Trolle.

– The second perspective is for victims who have been persecuted, murdered, and subjected to other abuses. Justice must be done to them. Therefore, returned adults must be investigated immediately, it adds.

The women and children have been in Turkey for more than two months. The reason they are now going home is, among other things, that a child must undergo a DNA test to confirm paternity.
