The world came to know him as “Jihadi John”. A masked figure who became one of the most recognisable faces linked to extremist propaganda during the height of global tensions in the 2010s.

But behind the name was Mohammed Emwazi, a man from London whose path into radicalisation shocked many who had known him earlier in life.

As his identity was uncovered, questions quickly followed. How did someone with a seemingly ordinary background become associated with one of the most widely discussed extremist movements in recent history? What were the warning signs, and could anything have been done differently?

This episode explores Emwazi’s early life, the events that led to his radicalisation, the international effort to identify him, and the lasting impact his story had on public perception, security, and global policy.
