Islamic State Militants Hurl 'Gay' Man To His Death In Syria

The Canadian Press, 28 Apr, 2016 11:46 AM
    IS militants executed an allegedly homosexual man in eastern Syria by pushing him off a hospital roof, a monitoring group reported on Thursday.
     
    The unnamed man was hurled to his death from the roof of a hospital in the town of al-Ashara in Syria's eastern Deir Ezzor province, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reported.
     
    The man, who came from the city of al-Mayadin, was accused by IS of being a 'sodomite', reported the Britain-based watchdog, which receives its information from activists and doctors inside Syria.
     
    In Deir Ezzor and other territory under its control, IS metes out savage 'Islamic' punishments including hurling alleged homosexuals off buildings to their deaths, beheading alleged spies and mutilating alleged thieves.
