ISIS Executes Prominent Syrian Female Politician, Brands her 'Traitor' for Opposing Militant Group [View all]

Reports out of Syria claim that a prominent 'outspoken' female politician was executed by the ISIS after the Sharia court found her guilty of 'espionage.'

Saada Al Ahmad was one of the leaders of "Al-Harakat Al-Sha'abiyya Al Qawimiyyeh Al-Massaanda", a political group that was actively working in Raqqa to unify the Syrian citizens and to bring the violence in the country to an end, reported Al-Masdar Al-'Arabi.

It is reported that Al Ahmad was increasingly motivating people to come together to form a democratic government. She also had spoken out against the 'Islamist' movement in the country, which was causing much blood-shed.

She was reportedly arrested by ISIS several months ago, but the details of her being 'alive or dead' was mostly undisclosed until recently, when the Islamic State militants started posting pictures of her body claiming that she had been executed for 'espionage.'
