A British ISIS fighter dubbed 'Hungry Hamza' after he whinged about missing fast food now claims he didn't realise how bad ISIS was.
Hamza Parvez left his comfortable home in west London five years ago and became one of the first Britons to join the terror group as it took over parts of Syria and Iraq.
But, after the extremists were crushed this year, Parvez, 26, has surrendered to Kurdish forces and is being held in a prison in Syria.
Speaking from his prison cell, he claimed he didn't realise ISIS were so bad when he went to join them.
Hamza Parvez, a British man who fought for ISIS for five years, now claims he didn't like life in the so-called caliphate after he was captured by Kurdish forces as ISIS crumbled
Hamza (pictured in 2014) used social media to encourage other British Muslims to join ISIS at the height of the 'caliphate'. He is now in jail in Syria and has had his British citizenship revoked
Parvez appeared on an ISIS recruitment video after joining the jihadis in 2014, telling British Muslims to follow his example, but was mocked online for moaning about having to give up his favourite KFC and Nando's meals.
He has lost nearly five stone while fighting for ISIS, and criticised the group over how they distributed food.
He told the BBC's Quentin Sommerville: 'I didn't know there was something waiting for me like that.
'Most foreign fighters say "We would never have come if we had know the realities of ISIS".'
He added: 'Many kids passed away from malutrition... I blame ISIS for it.'
Parvez has been stripped of his British citizenship and his only chance of getting out of Syria is to move to Pakistan, where he is still believed to have citizenship.
He married a Canadian-Pakistani woman in Syria, who is also currently in prison. They have two children together.

Mr Somerville said Parvez 'lied extensively' during their interview and the full extent of his crimes were unlikely to be uncovered.
He questioned Parvez on why he didn't just leave the group if he hated it so much.
Parvez said: 'There was many times where I thought time to pack up and leave and there's many times I did try to pack up and leave but the reality was that it wasn't as easy as it sounds.
'It's a small group of very big fish [in Isis] which make all the decisions for all the people.'

He is thought to be one of around 50 British jihadis who have been captured in Syria.
Parvez had a middle-class upbringing in west London, going to Holland Park School and getting a job as an accountant for a hotel firm before he fled to join ISIS aged 21.
He tried to create a social media following after arriving in the Middle East.
But followers back in Britain mocked Parvez for posting too much about food and his pet kitten, who he kept while fighting for the group.
He told followers he had dreamed about ordering food from KFC, Nando's and his favourite Thai restaurant.
In one post he wrote: 'Cheese and onion crisps, tropical juice on the floor with my klash [Kalashnikov rifle].'
Now, speaking in jail, Parvez admitted knowing ISIS executioner Mohammed Emwazi, known as 'Jihadi John', but claimed he didn't spend much time with him because he was scared of drone strikes.
