In the following story there would be nothing unusual if it were not for the evacuation of the detainee.
ISIS Mufti Abu Abdul Bari, who is also known as Shifa al-Nima, was arrested this week during an Iraqi SWAT raid in Nineveh.
However, this was not a routine arrest. To transport the suspect, the police needed a pick-up that could somehow accommodate this impressive-sized person.
Bari, an ISIS religious leader, is responsible for announcing numerous fatwas, Islamic religious orders, to execute clerics and scholars who refused to join the caliphate, said Iraq Security Media Cell.
He was also at the head of a terrorist cell in 2014, whose purpose was to eradicate the history and culture of the country, including the destruction of the mosque that was built in the place where it is believed that the biblical prophet Jonah is buried.
His capture caused a wave of enthusiasm and amusement in the anti-terrorist community.
„I'm delighted to say that the Islamic States very own Jabba the Hut has been captured in Mosul", human rights activist and anti-ISIS activist Macer Gifford tweeted. „Responsible for the execution of men, women and children. This animal raped and murdered. Good luck hanging him Iraq.”
