On day one of El Shafee Elsheikh's trial in Virginia, Diane Foley, mother of murdered hostage James Foley, tells AFP that the US court must do "the opposite of what was done" to the hostages in Syria. "I think it is important that we show how civilized people should react to others," she adds. One of the four members of a jihadist cell nicknamed the "Beatles" by their captives due to their British origins, El Shafee Elsheikh is accused of the murders of US journalists James Foley and Steven Sotloff and relief workers Peter Kassig and Kayla Mueller.
