The rebels are claiming so anyway, does seem quite hard to believe but it's a bizarre claim for them to have made up

Notorious terrorist suspect Samantha Lewthwaite - known as the White Widow - died a slow and agonising death after being hit by a sniper in Ukraine two weeks ago, it was alleged today.

Britain is seeking to verify shock claims that she was gunned down by pro-Moscow rebel forces near the eastern town of Debaltsevo, as reported by Regnum news agency in Moscow.

However, a senior intelligence officer in East Africa said yesterday 'all the evidence is she remains in Africa, we have not seen any evidence she is in Ukraine - dead or alive', while a Western intelligence source said 'Ukraine is not really an obvious destination for a jihadi, to say the least'.

And Dr Igor Sutyagin, Senior Research Fellow in Russian Studies at defence think tank the Royal United Services Institute, said he was highly dubious of the claims.

He told MailOnline: 'Why would the rebels hold on to this information for two weeks? And why have they not presented the body? And how would they know it's her? The agency that produced this story is a bit mad. The timing of the news is suspicious. Only when there's a new wave of sanctions from the West do they publish something, to cast themselves in a better light.'

great news

[Livia]

I hate it when the press give mysterious, super-hero type nicknames to brainless, murdering scum. White Widow my arse. I hope she is dead, and I hope she kicked around in agony for a while.

Hope it was a holopoint, hope it bounced around in her rib cage a few times and spliced a few organs, that would be... painful.

If this news is true then it's a small piece of good news amidst the unremitting deluge of death and destruction we have to endure almost on a daily basis.

They say what goes round comes round so this woman's murdering spree was going to end sometime.

I'm just sad it was at the end of a snipers bullet, would have preferred her to have been captured and incarcerated for a very very long time.

Still one less terrorist to worry about.
