Masked Islamic State (IS) executioner, Jihadi John has been described as a shy high school boy who secretly fixated on a pretty pal in class but her friends ridiculed the him for his bad breath who would grew up to be an IS executioner.

According to the Mirror, Ahlam Ajjot was shocked as she talked about her former classmate who was too scared to ask her out on a date after being taunted for his bad breath.

Jihadi John, who appeared in several beheading videos, was identified as Mohammed Emwazi, a Kuwaiti-born British man from west London, who loved playing football and was a "quiet lad" at a Church of England school.

He was subjected to daily bullying in school and even shed tears when a girl mocked him in front of her friends for his bad breath.

She said that he always used to be very reserved, awkward and stayed away from all the hype and drama in school.
