The telegram exhorted more Muslims from Kerala to join the outfit.
It flayed those engaged in entertainments during the month of Ramzan, saying it was `unislamic’.
The youths were working in Bahrain when they got the call to join the terror group. They vainly tried to reach Syria via Afghanistan and were killed during air raids by US war planes.
They had been missing since September 15 last year. The recruiter has prepared 30 audio clips to woo more youth to join the outfit.
