'Cover-up' over Reyaad Khan's RAF drone strike death

A family friend of a Cardiff jihadist killed by an RAF drone strike in Syria says there is a "cover-up" over his death.

Former city councillor Mohammed Islam told BBC News security services MI5 and MI6 had failed to act over Reyaad Khan, 21.

He told the Victoria Derbyshire programme Prime Minister David Cameron did not have any "legal permission" to carry out the airstrike.

MPs rejected UK military action in Syria two years ago - and ministers are now facing questions over the attack and calls to publish the legal advice.

Defence Secretary Michael Fallon has said the UK would "not hesitate" to launch more secret drone strikes in Syria to thwart potential terror plots.
