Known for
their barbaric punishments and repressive control over the locals, ISIS
have released photographs of militants hurling four men, accused of
homosexuality, off the top of a building in Iraq.
The
jihadi group has previously carried out the sickening punishment in
their de-facto capital, Raqqa, in Syria. Now the inhumane death sentence
has been used in the Iraqi province of Fallujah.
ISIS's
latest propaganda images come after a family of 12 British nationals,
including two grandparents are feared to have traveled to Syria. More photos after the cut.
With their arms bound tightly behind
their backs and their eyes fully covered with a makeshift blindfold,
each victim is shown being led to the edge of the tall building.
At the
command of a senior ISIS officer, the two militants appear to grab their
victim around his wait and hoist him to the edge of the rooftop. All
four victims are then dropped from the lofty height to their deaths.
Several photographers appear to have been used by ISIS's media team in
order to capture the victims on the roof and on the ground.
The gruesome propaganda photos appear to be an attempt by the depraved militant group to reinforce its rule of fear.
The final photo, too graphic for publication, showed the impact of the head injuries suffered by each of the victims.
Unusually
for an ISIS public execution, no local civilians or ISIS militants
appear to have come out and watched the men's death.
ISIS's propaganda photos are normally filled with people watching the punishment.
The
extremist group have become known for their tough punishments, with
theft punished by the amputation of a hand and the consummation of wine
punished by a flogging.
