Around 250 British-based extremists who went to train and fight in Syria have returned to the UK, it has emerged.
Ministers have been told that over the past two years more than 400 Britons have gone to Syria and it is now thought just over half have returned.
In January alone, 16 people were arrested on suspicion of terrorism offences related to Syria compared with 24 arrests in the whole of last year.
A senior Whitehall source said: "The threat from Syria is serious and presents real challenges for intelligence agencies.
"But not all of those returning will start engaging in UK-based attack planning.
"For some, their jihad is done, others will help others travel to Syria, while others will raise funds for fighting."
BY ALLOWING THESE JIHADIS BACK IN THE COUNTRY NOW UK IS JUST ASKING FOR A TROUBLE.
