Extremists Behead a Man Over Claims He Was Shia

The Islamic State of Iraq and Grater Syria (ISIS) has released a grisly video of two jihadists in Aleppo holding up the head of a man they claimed was an Iraqi Shiite who had been fighting for the regime.

 

The British-based opposition Syrian Human Rights Observatory said the decapitated man was a rebel.

 

Activists said the man was fighting under the banner of the Ahrar al-Sham Islamic Movement and he was wounded during the ongoing battle of Aleppo central prison before becoming a victim of ISIS.
