Using Muay Thai I destroyed all who challenged me!

Gashi’s brother confirmed his brother’s death on Facebook, according to Swiss TV channel Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen (SRF).

During his time serving in the self-proclaimed caliphate Gashi, 29, had taken on the role of a policeman or customs agent, patrolling areas of the Turkish border and thwarting cigarette smugglers from entering Isil territory.

Gashi, a two-time Thai Boxing champion, had competed all over South East Asia was “one of the better foreign Muay Thai fighters in Thailand”, according to boxing blog Fightland.

A father of two, he told his family he was leaving to start a Muay Thai camp in Switzerland.

He soon appeared on social media brandishing a gun, saying he wasn’t engaged in fighting but was helping to “clear up misunderstandings.”

Gashi also took a number of his proteges with him to Syria.

In an interview with SRF published earlier this year, Gashi seemed unfazed about the prospect of death.

“If I die while doing good, I of course will be glad,” Gashi had said.

The Observatory added that some sources asserted Gashi was still alive, and had even attempted another escape.
