"After the girl fell ill and wet her mattress, the husband of the accused chained her up outside as punishment and let the child die of thirst in the scorching heat," they said in a statement.
"The accused allowed her husband to do so and did nothing to save the girl."
The federal prosecutors said they had laid the charges of war crimes, murder and weapons offences back on December 14 in a Munich court that deals with state security and terrorism cases.

"Her task was to ensure that women comply with the behavioral and clothing regulations established by the terrorist organization," said the statement.
"For intimidation, the accused carried an assault rifle of the type Kalashnikov, a pistol and an explosives vest."

No date has been set yet for the start of the trial. If found guilty, she would face up to life in jail.
