Ok because i like to question the news media of this country, let's scrutinise the Independent story...
Firstly it uses a media picture unrelated to the story itself. Clearly the picture was immediately incite, as he is a wanted man throughout the world currently in hiding, hence he could have had nothing to do with the story.
Second up, the picture is in Mosul....read what the story later says;
The official was quoted as saying it was the
first case of its kind documented in Mosul, and there had previously been "no formal decision by the Sharia Court to ban listening to western music". Meaning this is unusual and this story may not be true.
Confirmed by the report all so saying this;
It is impossible to verify the report, but Kurdish media seem to suggest the incident has led to rare public displays of outrage.
So why is it impossible, well let me tell you and this bit is brilliant...the Independents report comes from ARA News and operates within Syria, some believe by the Kurds. But wait....here it is...
The last online publication of ARA News was issued online in late August 2017.
So how the hell did the independent get this story?
Because the story was published on
February 17, 2016 as was the Independent article!
The quote posted by Duncs said; 'The boy was reportedly publicly beheaded, before his body was handed to his family on Tuesday evening.'
Yeah a Tuesday in 2016
