IS makes list of fugitive members in western Mosul, police arrest 18 in east
2017-02-24
[Iraq News] The Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're 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 the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
has prepared a list of 143 members it accuses of escaping battles with security forces in western djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
, while 18 members were tossed in the slammer
... anything you say can and will be used against you, whether you say it or not...
by police in the eastern side of the city.

"The group issued this morning the first list of 143 of its members whom it described as ’delinquent’ for having escaped front defense lines in western Mosul," a local source told Alsumaria News on Thursday.

According to the source, the group distributed the list among members at its checkpoints and outposts in western Mosul in order to get fleeing fighter arrested.

Iraqi government forces, backed by paramilitary troops, launched Sunday a new phase of offensives against the Islamic State in Mosul, targeting the liberation of the western region after taking control over the east late January.

In eastern Mosul, Nineveh police chief, Brig. Gen. Wathiq al-Hamadani, said his forces arrested 18 members from the Islamic State at al-Qahera district.

Since recapturing the eastern section of Mosul, Islamic State Death Eaters have attacked liberated areas in that area with drones and sneaking murderous Moslems, killing several civilians and security personnel. Iraqi officials have also voiced fears that dormant IS cells in those areas could pose a security threat.
