9:25 am
was like an illness a plague like the flu actually unfortunately i became infected. my husband process and. and he can so open minded if freeman who loved life if. he was calm and witty. can't everyone respected him at least one of the few then he became a lot more religious developed he started to pray and so on at this ration i noticed his opinions had changed. i don't know how to put it it was a gradual thing all right one day he visited his parents in their village. that. the next day his mother phoned me and said he was gone for gas have you no

9:27 am
from now on you belong to islamic state we don't like. the last of me and i didn't go on the look of the 2 members of i s arrived and said you start working for us tomorrow. on the thursday we were given weapons. then there were 10 women in my unit 3 drove around in a van the other 7 stayed at the station to torture those arrested.
9:28 am
why they were all tool well built women. the aim was to intimidate people. picked the toughest among us women who knew no pity with any one of. us we had to patrol the neighborhoods looking for women who didn't wear proper clothing that's why we arrested them and brought them to the his police station. must help. us and to most of our other you had to wear a wide and a face veil to begin with the woman could have their eyes free but then they changed their minds the whole body had to be covered the women even had to wear gloves those were the rules. if women were now and were not fully covered up and even with a tight fitting up by or material that was shiny. it was against the rules. and in the home. yeah the only handicapped us with their restrictions on clothes
9:29 am
and what i can work out of that we can move normally under that i can administer an i.v. to a baby imagine putting an i.v. into a baby's vein with fully covered eyes of the other and i can see if they. make a push from there the instructions had to be followed to the latter i handbags had to be black so did i shoes black same for socks and everything else had to be honest we looked like garbage bags completely black out. there and was to sell us their own clothing it was a money making enterprise i was arrested wearing clothes like the ones i have on
9:30 am
now that i was forced to buy and i asked out for it for 6 or 7000 syrian pounds then they let me go on. even 7 year old girls had to wear the shari'a clothing. any amount of a 10 year old girl was seen as a grown up and had to dress accordingly and had a better. might have been the most brooke let's let that me oh i hope once a girl wanted to go shopping. she was 10 or 11 years old. she wore pajama bottoms and her prayer smock over them up as. she entered a store to buy something. i happened to be there on the wall climbing her own it's
9:31 am
not hard to look at just moments when they his spot driving past spotted her. they stopped. well but all they had seen her trousers and her top. this is a guy strong damn he was from kuwait or a saudi i could tell by has x. and. he shouted at her. why are you dressed like that you slot. the kid was so scared she herself. knew what to do whenever we saw his bus we don't start trembling we do move away as far away as possible and we wait for it to pass we were really terrified whenever we saw them.
9:32 am
we had to load the women onto the bus and drive back sometimes they would face a lot of 2040 or 10 women it was different every day. but we never returned empty handed. me my mom had an acquired taste we arrested just 10 of them. we never got time off. and 1st the women were whipped by the his bar and locked up for a few days but then i had to buy appropriate clothing from us and was set free. let forgotten but now i remember. once we arrested a woman for wearing nail polish benson they tore out her nails with pliers just for wearing nail polish. so what my worst memory is of a woman who wasn't wearing
9:33 am
a nick how. well they tortured her i found out she was dumb she could not speak i felt really sorry for her lot i tortured her although she could not speak. there was one woman who was responsible for the women who committed minor moral offenses we called her the biter. once she bit a woman's breast and didn't let go until she was dead she died because she was bitten in the breast. limits and then. another woman had recently given birth to her son was running a fever. she panicked and ran out into the street to buy medication at the pharmacy has a his but vehicle passed by the religious police stopped her and said why are you
9:34 am
out dressed like a whore her a bio was made of shiny lycra. but that was forbidden and they showed no mercy. she said i've just given birth. but they bit her hard and then used electrical pliers we were home. when hundreds and one of our women were humiliated and he had no way exterminated would do. the job. we have and they were objects of lust and have puppets that the men took at will and then put back in their place women were like merchandise with no rights or value in society. we shut us out into.
9:35 am
problem but i never stopped working with god's help fundamental and i still do today being on the had to understand mother. in santa say half my name is a lot that's how i run a hair dresser's in mosul let me tell you what i experienced the studio. to be on william clinton $51.00 that there was a raid on my salon during opening hours they confiscated everything they can find a hole this year is new a hottie took whatever they wanted of that and destroyed the rest but they took the place apart like the bandits stole everything and it took what jewelry furniture money is used and gold either have. just lost.
9:36 am

9:39 am
a bent but they don't put there from time to time to head supervisors would make a surprise visit to us just to make sure we were following the dress from the start of the window down to make sure we weren't changing our behavior behind their backs sort of as you. got going every piece. was the whole of how i asked sees women. how they see us is full of hatred and life became a jail for women both those in the organization and the others which are life was like a prison then they suffocated at home and elsewhere they were trapped they were suppressed and could hardly breathe. you even had to be careful what you said in your own home that the fossil. record had better go all.
9:40 am
the school which. i'm never so bad that he is about people knew nothing about their colleagues i knew nothing about them and they knew nothing about. everything was kept secret. although he should. have to fear that high on him on even we were under surveillance but there was a female colleague watching over us. if i let someone go because i knew them and she immediately reported me yeah you had them on that test of course you see if. the governor and i had a friend a nameless fountain here she was a very close friend and you go there because it's not the limited with the breeze she was teaching with us at the mosque the norm that one day one of the officials appeared in the middle of class to spy on us while the good fats and didn't follow the instructions with their students. which taught children things for their rights

9:42 am
remotely labeled a regular hamas. started looking but not dealt with. and what had been her do that then i want to lodge a very sharp take. young. boy come back him and i hope my husband often took us to see executions to demonstrate that the punishments were in accordance with the qur'an. well one time we were in the car and he said come on i want to show you something. the 1st. yes an executed was a homosexual all of according to the qur'an the guilty party has pushed off a cliff in this case they pushed him off the roof of a building tied to a chair of the halls of the 2nd one killed was a woman. my husband forced me to watch her being stoned to death in a public place. they threw stones until the blood poured out of her face and i as
9:43 am
she raised her head several times and then they kept on throwing stones until she was dead what. i knew a woman of power one of the ladies she was the wife of an ear. that she came from the graphics card she was very bossy and very nervous. she allowed herself to do many things she forbade us to do that but did you know went to a house once she had invited as we couldn't refuse. we went there and saw how she

9:46 am
1st night he told me what he liked doing and how i was to satisfy him. he was bruce are they all were. yes men are known for that women have no say. they simply have to do as they're told without question. of course i was unhappy when one he beat me on our wedding night oh. there's nothing there's no one i love but one so of course it was sad that he was often violent not only to me he also hit his other wife in my presence just as he hit me when she was there neither of us dead say anything. most of the. a couple 100. there were several kinds of marriages such as sexual jihads other suppliers the
9:47 am
female slaves and slaves was sold to several men in me as are fighters who have been in the sexual jihad on the other hand is marrying an enemy of a fighter and the woman thinks that later on god will reward her as if she had participated in jihad in the fighting. broke out there who could it's my kind if there was a woman named him and she oversaw all the marriage and sexual jihad matus. she had a girls' names ages and physical descriptions. she was innocent all this with the fighters in the in me is. in me is preferred virgins. in me is not a simple fighter. how can i say this. they each had specific requests for marriage. everyone had his own requirements grab a. limit on what we went on patrol in the bus and handed the women
9:48 am
over to the guards who took them to the torture chamber and the judge did that she did meet up there they his but commander inspected them and if you liked one he would make a marriage proposal but. if she said yes he issued the marriage papers and she went home with him if not she remained in custody and was tortured. and there's a dog i'm fucked i experienced some strange things when i worked for them. one time i asked for a midwife i went to fetch her. she was allegedly supposed to help the wives give birth. mom. once or twice i fell for the trick i want. michael but. then i discovered that the midwives did not really come for a delivery. and it was because of the sex slaves in the kitchen.
