7 executed in Mosul for spying
[ARA News] Erbil – Extremists of the Islamic State (ISIS) beheaded on Thursday seven civilians in the city of Mosul, after accusing them of spying for the Iraqi Army.
Local sources told ARA News that the ISIS-led Islamic Police, also known as Diwan al-Hisba, arrested seven men earlier on Wednesday on suspicion of leaking security information about the group’s movements in Mosul to hostile parties.
The Sharia Court said in a statement that the suspects were involved in communicating with Iraqi government officials and leaking confidential information about the locations of ISIS positions in Mosul.
“The arrested men were charged with treason, apostasy and spying for hostile troops. They were beheaded in front of hundreds of people in central Mosul on Thursday,” local media activist Abdullah al-Malla told ARA News.
