File photo DUHOK Extremists of the Islamic State (ISIS) on Sunday publicly flogged an Iraqi woman in the city of Mosul on charges of violating the Sharia dress code, activists and eyewitnesses reported. The ISIS-led Islamic Police arrested on Sunday morning a 35-year-old woman in Mosul central market under the pretext that her clothes contradicted the dress code imposed by ISIS in the region, an eyewitness told ARA News, speaking on condition of anonymity. The woman has then appeared at the Sharia Court of Mosul, which accused her of violating the Islamic dress code and order ISIS jihadis to flog her in public. In front of hundreds of people, two masked militants whipped the woman with 50 lashes, head of Nineveh media center Raafat al-Zarari told ARA News. The judges at the ISIS-led Sharia Courts have arbitrarily punished hundreds of people in Mosul on baseless charges, al-Zarari said. Those public punishments take place on a daily basis in ISIS-held areas in an attempt from the group to show off its power over those vulnerable civilians, he added. Dozens of Women arrested in Syrias Jarablus for violating Sharia Dress In January, ISIS jihadis launched an arrest campaign in Syrias northern city of Jarablus, targeting women accused of violating the dress code imposed by the radical group.

The arrested women were whipped in public on 29 January, accruing to local sources. In areas under ISIS control, every woman accused of violating the Islamic dress code imposed by the radical group is being flogged 50 times in public as a punishment, based on extremist regulations of the Sharia Court.

so hundreds stood by idlely and didn't riseup against 2 of them? and you want us in the usa to help them? fat chance.. time for them to step up and fight for there own country or be taken over by them.
Agreed. The problem is that all Muslims have that same Koran and Haddith mind screw telling them that ISIS may be right. Religion is a bad thing.
Reminds me of the pro-life women in the U.S. who endure slanders from the pro-choice crowd for speaking up in behalf of human life.
Debate and public disagreement is not the same as physical abuse. Please don't look at this woman's suffering as an opportunity to cynically use her misfortune as a way to publicize your own political beliefs.
Sorry, I want to criticize this, but if I do I'll be called a bigoted islamophobe for not being tolerant of a savage 7th century culture.
