Baasit, Umar and Raza Siddiqui posed for the picture while out enjoying a day paintballing, but it was the ill-advised caption that caused the problem - 'ISIS training day, look how happy we look!'.
The picture was uploaded to Raza's personal Facebook page. However, one of his friends was not laughing as they reported it to the police.
Maybe I'm missing something, but clearly this is a joke. However, I guess you can never be too careful.

The 'friend' who reported the picture spoke to the Sun anonymously. They said: "When you are in the media, you have a responsibility.
"His friends were liking and loving it. You don't know if any of those people are genuinely ISIS supporters."
After all that, Derbyshire Police have confirmed that there are no terrorism links (SHOCK HORROR!!) but they'll be 'offering words of advice'.
They told The Mirror: "A member of the public contacted us after a photo of three men at a paintball centre was uploaded to Facebook, mentioning the so-called Islamic State.

"We have examined the photograph and are satisfied that the caption was not intended to be taken seriously, and there was no link to terrorism whatsoever.
"We will be offering suitable words of advice to those who uploaded it. However, no offences have been committed and there will be no further police action."
