The 17-year-old teenager used Skype to wed Naweed Hussain (pictured), a Briton who had travelled to Syria to join up with jihadis

A girl of 17 married an IS fighter on Skype and then plotted a terror attack at a British museum, a court heard yesterday.

The teenager used the video chat system to wed Naweed Hussain, a Briton who had travelled to Syria to join up with jihadis.

Together they allegedly planned an atrocity in which she would use hand grenades and a pistol to kill innocent civilians.

In court yesterday, she strolled into the dock wearing a navy Nike tracksuit, with her long hair swept back in a high ponytail.

The teenager, who is said to have wanted to ‘become a martyr’, is thought to be the youngest British woman to be charged with planning a terrorist attack on UK soil.

Westminster Magistrates Court heard how the youngster was 16 when she hatched a murderous plot with Hussain.

Her 32-year-old husband, a British Pakistani from Coventry, had travelled to Syria in June 2015 leaving his first wife and family behind.
