One of the members of a group of Islamic State group kidnappers called the Beatles was sentenced today to life in prison by a US federal court.

Alexada Cotti, Cypriot-born, former British citizen, pleaded guilty in September as he admitted responsibility in the deaths of four American hostages in Syria.

Another member of that cell, El Shafi el-Sheikh, who was captured with him by Syrian Kurdish forces in 2018, was found guilty in April after a difficult trial and his sentence will be set in the summer.
