A sister of the Islamic State killer known as Jihadi John is living in fear after receiving threats over his brutal murders, the Standard has learned.
Shayma Emwazi, 23, has received abusive messages on social media forcing her to close her Facebook account, a friend revealed.
Executioner Mohamed Emwazi’s family, now living under police protection at a secret address, is said to be in shock after fleeing their west London home when his identity was revealed two weeks ago. Relatives including his mother, brother and three of his sisters, are being guarded round the clock by armed officers at a reported cost of £5,000 a day.
The friend, who attended Quintin Kynaston academy, the St John’s Wood school also attended by Emwazi and his brothers and sisters, described Shayma as a normal girl, who had been shocked by the news of her terrorist  brother. The friend, who did not want to be named, told the Standard: “They are struggling to live a normal life.
“Shayma came back from holiday not too long ago to all of this drama which occurred overnight. She does not deserve to be blamed for her brother’s evil actions.
“The only thing she and Mohamed have in common is that they are blood, but she is not a terrorist.”
The friend described how a close circle of friends had been supporting Shayma, a student, by explaining to other Facebook users that she is not to blame for her brother’s actions.
She said: “She’s stressed because people were blaming her for her brother’s actions, so she removed her account. It’s a shame I feel sorry for her. Friends have been telling people on Facebook to stop blaming her for Mohamed’s actions, she’s not accountable.”
The friend said she believed Emwazi had been radicalised by the “people he chose to hang out with. That’s what changed him”.
She added: “I feel really sorry for Shayma because she just wants to live her life without being attacked for the stigma of her brother’s actions. He is not normal but his family are.”
The friend said that at school Shayma “was in no way an extremist, she was cool, she would hang out with boys and girls and although she was Muslim and wore a scarf she wasn’t in any way extremist.
“Shayma wore normal clothes. She didn’t stand out from anyone else in an abnormal or weird way. She had normal arguments and wasn’t too loud quiet or told she was just normal. She was bubbly and down to earth and always smiling. Her younger brother Omar sometimes got into fights at school and was a bit of a joker, he was a normal lad, he was short and wasn’t someone I would be afraid of.”
It came as Channel 4 showed a video of Emwazi playing football at Quintin Kynaston Academy.
The terrorist dubbed Jihadi John was barred from entering Tanzania in 2009 because he was “very drunk” rather than due to security fears, it has been revealed.
Emwazi, recently identified as the masked Islamic State fighter who has appeared in a series of beheading videos, was stopped at the airport in Dar-es-Salaam by border officials.
The west Londoner was reportedly told that the British government could have been behind the refusal to let him enter the country after a tip-off from security services.
But officials in Tanzania have said he and two friends were stopped for being drunk and disorderly, according to reports in The Times.
Tanzania’s home affairs minister Mathias Chikawe said: “They were refused entry because they disembarked from the plane very drunk.
“They were insulting our immigration staff and other people.”
He added: “There was no information from anywhere that they were criminal suspects.”
The trio were held at a police station overnight and put on a flight to Amsterdam the next day, where Emwazi claimed he was questioned by “Nick, from MI5”, the newspaper reported.
One of the group was reportedly fellow Briton Ali Adorus, who is currently being held in an Ethiopian prison after being convicted of terror offences.
Advocacy group Cage recently released an audio recording of an interview they claimed to be with Emwazi in which he said he was threatened by the agent during questioning at Schipol airport in Amsterdam.
He said the agent had tried to “put words in my mouth”, adding: “’We are going to keep a close eye on you, Mohammed. We already have been and we are going to keep a close eye on you’ - threatening me.”
Emwazi claimed the agent accused him of trying to reach Somalia for terrorism training when he had tried to head to Tanzania - something he denied, insisting he was going on a safari trip.
