ISIS executes Iraqi militia leader in Ninevah
[ARA News] ERBIL – Militants of the Islamic State (ISIS) executed on Tuesday the head of al-Hisba (taxation) department in Iraq’s northwestern province of Nineveh, local sources reported. Members of the Islamic Police raided the office of the ISIS-led al-Hisba department in the city of Mosul in Nineveh province and killed its head and three of his escorts. Media activist Abdullah al-Malla told ARA News in Mosul that Saleh Ahmed al-Jabouri, head of al-Hisba department, was killed by gunmen of the Islamic Police in the Tanak neighborhood of Mosul city. It was not immediately clear whether the assassination of al-Jabouri was carried out with an order from ISIS leadership. “Killing al-Jabouri reflects the growing rifts in the ranks of ISIS,” al-Malla said. ISIS has not issued any statement on the incident. In the meantime, pro-ISIS media activists described the execution as “unofficial”, since there was no order by the Sharia Court to execute al-Jabouri and his escorts. Posted by: badanov 2016-02-03 |
