We don\u0027t know whether he is dead or alive, says parent of \u0027Jihadi Jack\u0027 in plea for Canada to repatriate him
In what was the first real breakthrough in Lane’s son’s case, the Canada’s federal court last month ruled that Letts, 28, and other Canadian nationals detained in north-eastern Syria have the right to return. But the federal government is appealing the ruling.
Her son’s journey into ISIL territory forced Lane, who in her own words “lived a fairly uneventful and law-abiding life for 54 years,” into acting like a mix of private detective and investigative journalist to help him.

Lane was let go from her job as a fundraising officer at Oxfam and lost friends, who she says told her they were too afraid of being monitored by MI5.Article content He wrote: “Jan once dreamed the chickens were in the shed. Mrs Big died in my arms. I’m going to send u my mums cousins name You help him give Mrs Big a sum to bribe the fox.”
