description: "Mohammed Emwazi, commonly referred to as Jihadi John, was a British militant of Kuwaiti origin seen in several videos produced by the Islamist extremist group Islamic State (IS) showing the beheadings of a number of captives in 2014 and 2015. A group of his hostages nicknamed him \"John\" since he was part of a four-person terrorist cell with English accents whom they called 'The Beatles'; the press later began calling him \"Jihadi John\"."
