‘Bestiality’ stoning

Images released by the group show a man accused of ‘having sex with animals’ and ‘having a homosexual affair’ being stoned. Forced to wear a scarf over his eyes, the man’s hands are bound behind his back as he stands next to a freshly-prepared grave. A dozen ISIS fighters throw large rocks at the victim while the all-male crowd watch on. Graphic close-up shots of the man’s broken body show his injuries. The group also publishes images of a prisoner of war, who had been caught fighting and spying on behalf of the Assad regime, being beheaded in the Syrian desert.
