The Beatings Will Continue: Iraqi Edtion
 Woman executed for refusing marriage [ARA News] DUHOK – Extremists of the Islamic State (ISIS) executed an Iraqi woman in Mosul city after accusing her of ‘committing adultery’, local sources reported on Friday. The 32-year-old woman was stoned to death at the hands of ISIS jihadis in the Darkazliya neighbourhood in eastern Mosul. “The ISIS-led Sharia Court said in a statement that the woman was charged with adultery, without providing further information,” media activist Abdullah al-Malla told ARA News in Mosul city, in Iraq’s northwestern Nineveh governorate. Dozens of people participated in stoning the woman. “ISIS jihadis demanded the people of Mosul to watch the brutal execution, and forced dozens to participate in stoning her along with the group’s militants,” al-Malla reported. Informed sources in Mosul told ARA News that the woman was sentenced to death for refusing to marry an ISIS jihadi. “The adultery accusation was completely baseless. This woman was executed for escaping her family’s house after an ISIS jihadi asked her hand for marriage and her father agreed,” head of Nineveh media centre Raafat al-Zarari said. “She preferred death instead of marrying one of ISIS jihadis, who are known for their brutality towards women,” Zarari told ARA News.
