The unmasking of bloodthirsty IS killer Jihadi John brought the world’s biggest-ever joint terrorist manhunt out into the open.
The multi-million-pound search for 26-year-old Briton Mohammed Emwazi may even dwarf the search for Osama bin Laden.
An enormous probe into Emwazi’s background has secretly been under way for months, involving international co-operation between British police and counter-terror spooks from MI5 and MI6 alongside US agents from the FBI and the CIA, as well as special forces.
Specialists at GCHQ and the American National Security Agency have monitored every phone call and social media communication by Emwazi’s family and friends.
Syrian and Iraqi agents recruited in refugee camps across Turkey by MI6, the CIA and the French DGSE intelligence agencies have flooded the region looking for clues.
And every target mobile phone call, suspicious email, tweet, Facebook posting pinged across the Middle East is being analysed.
