Neil Prakash, the Melbourne man who became a recruiter for the ISIS militant group, has reportedly been stripped of his Australian citizenship.
The 27-year-old was told of the Australian government's decision on December 21, becoming the 12th dual national to have their citizenship annulled over associations with offshore terror groups, The Weekend Australian reports.
It's understood Prakash holds Fijian citizenship through his father.

Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton told The Weekend Australian his first priority "is and always will be the safety and security of all Australians".
"This government is determined to deal with foreign terrorist fighters as far from our shores as possible," he said.
"Islamic State is opposed to Australia, our interests, values, democratic beliefs, rights and liberties."
Prakash's passport was cancelled in 2014 and he was added to a sanctions list in 2015.

He is currently behind bars in Turkey over his terrorism-related activities although Australia has been seeking to extradite him.
Prakash has also been implicated in at least two terror plots on Australian soil, including the Anzac Day plot to behead a Melbourne police officer.
"To be in the service of such a terrorist organisation, as Mr Prakash was, is to act inconsistently with your allegiance to Australia and we will do everything we can to ensure he is brought to account for his crimes," Mr Dutton said.

This disgraceful Muslim did not think of Australia when he went to a foreign country to fight for Muslims, now magically he wants to come "home" to Australia a country that gave him everything and a country he betrayed, sorry you are not welcome back here and Australia is not your home, disgusting, I wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire.
