On Wednesday, the Supreme Judicial Council in Iraq issued a death sentence against the wife of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the terrorist organization ISIS, after convicting her of working with the organization and detaining Yazidi women in her home.
The Council explained that the Yazidi women were kidnapped by gangs of the terrorist organization in the Sinjar district, west of Nineveh Governorate, and then the accused held them captive in her home in Mosul.
According to a source in the court who requested to remain anonymous because he is not allowed to speak to the media, the Central Criminal Court issued a death sentence by hanging against Al-Baghdadi’s wife after she was found guilty of crimes against humanity and the crime of genocide against the Yazidis, in addition to her involvement in terrorist activities.
The source confirmed that the ruling must be ratified by an Iraqi Court of Appeal to become final and enforceable.
It is noteworthy that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was killed in 2019 in a strike launched by US Special Forces on northwestern Syria.
Al-Baghdadi had emerged to lead ISIS and declare himself the “caliph” of all Muslims, controlling vast areas of Iraq and Syria from 2014 to 2017, before the organization’s control disintegrated.
In November 2019, Turkey announced the arrest of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s widow, along with 10 other people, including his daughter.
A Turkish official stated that this wife is Al-Baghdadi’s “first wife,” and she was arrested in June 2018 in the Turkish province of Hatay, bordering Syria.
The Turkish media indicated at the time that the wife’s name was Asmaa Fawzi Muhammad al-Kubaisi, and their daughter was named Laila.
Last February, the Iraqi judicial authorities announced the interrogation of Al-Baghdadi’s “family,” explaining that they had been recovered from outside Iraq in cooperation with the Turkish authorities.
