A British terror suspect who was accused of beheading Western hostages for Islamic State, has pleaded guilty to 8 charges in a US federal court.

37 year-old Alexanda Amon Kotey is accused of being part of a cell nicknamed the 'Beatles' due to their British accents.

Mr. Kotey - who was raised in London - is one of 4 I.S militants given the nickname by captives.
