Lewthwaite, 30, who was said to be fighting for the Islamic State in Syria last month, was gunned down two weeks ago, reports claim A British female terrorist nicknamed the 'White Widow' has reportedly been shot and killed in Ukraine. Samantha Lewthwaite, 30, was gunned down by a Russian sniper two weeks ago, according to Moscow news agency Regnum. One of Britain's most wanted people, she was reported last month as fighting for the Islamic State's terrorists in Syria. The extraordinary Russian claim has not yet been formally verified and her father has said he is not aware if the reports are true. Lewthwaite was married to 7/7 suicide bomber Germaine Lindsay, 19, a Jamaican-born Yorkshireman, and allegedly left Britain in 2009 before being linked to atrocities in Africa.

"According to our information, the White Widow fought on the side of Ukrainian volunteer battalion Aidar as a sniper. "She was killed by "a volunteer sniper who came to fight at the Lugansk front from Russia". The report continued: "The Russian sniper who killed the British terrorist now has a price of nearly one million dollars on his head from Ukrainian special services." But Lewthwaite dad, 58-year-old builder Andrew Lewthwaite, said: "I have heard nothing. No-one has told me anything about this. I'm not saying anything more about it." The extraordinary unconfirmed claim came amid a welter of propaganda from Moscow and Kiev over the Ukrainian crisis.Reports last month claimed Lewthwaite - a former soldier's daughter - joined Islamic State earlier this year and became one of the most powerful women in the network.
