Syria Jihadists Ban Mannequins in Shops |
2014-05-13 |
[An Nahar] Syria's most extreme jihadist faction issued a ban Monday on mannequins in shop displays and the sale of women's underwear to male customers, a monitoring group said. The decision by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant ... the current version of al-Qaeda in Iraq, just as blood-thirsty and well-beloved as the original... (ISIL) in their northern stronghold of Raqa also bans men and women shopping together unless he is her husband, father or brother, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said. The Observatory also said ISIL has decided that traditional garments on sale must be neither "tight, transparent or ornate". Raqa is the only quiet provincial capital in Syria to have fallen from the hands of Hereditary President-for-Life Bashir Pencilneckal-Assad Light of the Alawites... 's regime, and it is now completely under ISIL control. ISIL is believed to be holding some 1,000 hostages in Raqa, rights groups say, many of them peaceful activists, rival rebels or civilians caught committing "crimes" such as heresy or smoking. |
