ISIS arrests hundreds of shop owners in Mosul
[RUDAW.NET] The Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (ISIS) has tossed in the slammer Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! hundreds of shopkeepers in djinn-infested Mosul ... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn... for failure to pay a religious tax to the fanatical group that has occupied the city in northern Iraq for more than a year, a Kurdish official said Wednesday. Businesses in the vast territories that ISIS controls in Iraq and Syria must pay their "zakat," or Islamic alms that practicing Moslems usually give to the poor, to the myrmidon group, known as "Daesh" in Arabic. "Daesh arrested 355 shop owners in Mosul after they refused to pay zakat to the group," said Saad Mamuzin, front man of the Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) in Mosul, who lives in the Kurdistan Region since ISIS seized the city in June last year. He added that ISIS had previously warned it would punish violators. "Anyone who violates the ISIS decree is imprisoned by the group," Mamuzin said, explaining that detainees have been taken to unknown locations and their fate is unknown. Posted by: Fred 2015-07-16 |
