Inside ISIS courtroom complete with human cages and victims' photos where world's most brutal sentences were handed out
Inside ISIS courtroom complete with human cages and victims' photos where world's most brutal sentences were handed out
Sophie Evans
This chilling footage shows the inside of an ISIS courthouse where some of the world's most brutal sentences were handed out to terrified prisoners.
Defendants at the building in the Iraqi city of Fallujah were locked up in tiny, iron cages before being hauled before extremist 'judges' for trials.
Horrifically,
these cramped cages were built in different shapes - so the men and
women inside them were forced to either stand, kneel or curl up.
They
were also positioned in the same dilapidated room, close to the court
where many of the prisoners would later be sentenced to a violent death.

The defendants, mostly 'innocent locals' and security personnel, were
eventually released from their makeshift cells to be tried for their
'crimes'.
At this point, they would be dragged up to the
courtroom, remarkably similar in appearance to many small US
courthouses, with a judge's bench and rows of chairs.
However, unlike these other buildings, this room featured an
unmistakable sign of extremism on the wall - the Islamic State's
black-and-white flag.
And the 'judges' would try the defendants based on 'their own rules and laws'.

The courthouse, discovered by Iraqi soldiers, is thought to have been
used by ISIS fighters to hold and sentence their enemies as recently as
June.
This is the month that the terror group was eventually
driven out of Fallujah after controlling the city in Al Anbar since
January 2014.
The footage of the building, released by RT Arabic, shows the now-abandoned human cages, suspected Sharia courtroom and old case documents.
It also depicts photos of former defendants and information on their proceedings.

The terror group reportedly 'arrested' locals for refusing to join their ranks or violating their laws (file picture)
Standing at the site, Iraqi Army Brig, Jalil Abdulredha, told NBC: "They used to imprison locals in iron cages like animals.
"They
made different shapes of cages for different positions, such as
kneeling and standing. This shows the brutality of this terrorist
organization."
He added of the courtroom, which used to be
upmarket housing: "Most of [the defendants] were innocent locals and
members of security forces."
Mr Abdulredha said prisoners may have been 'arrested' by the
terror group for refusing to join their ranks or violating their laws,
among other 'offences'.
It is unclear whether the cages were situated below the courtroom, or in an adjacent building.
