Dutch court hands four women prison sentences for ISIS links
2023-04-14
[Rudaw] A Dutch court on Thursday sentenced four women to prison sentences for up to three years on charges of being Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems...
(ISIS) members and complicity in "terrorist crimes" after being repatriated from a camp in northeast Syria last year.

"The women traveled to the battlefields in Syria and Iraq knowing that a war was going on there. They have joined ISIS there. Their husbands had positions with IS," Dutch judges said in a statement by the Rotterdam District Court.

The four were part of a group of five Dutch women and 11 children who were repatriated back to the Netherlands last February from Roj camp in northeast Syria, controlled by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

"The sentences imposed vary from 30 to 36 months in prison, of which 12 to 15 months are suspended," the judges’ statement added.

the court also stated that "the women have explicitly renounced the IS ideology."

...which are usually entirely different from personal liberty...
groups calling camp conditions "filthy," "often inhumane," and "life-threatening."

"More and more is known about what the original population of IS area had to endure and there are hardly any words to describe the seriousness of it," the judges said.
