The family of murdered journalist Steven Sotloff believe his location was sold to Islamic State (Isis) militants for up to $50,000 (£30,000) by a moderate rebel group in Syria.
Barak Barfi, a spokesman for and friend of Mr Sotloff’s family, said “sources on the ground” say a member of the group reached out to Isis and sold his location at the border crossing with Syria.
