Daish & ISIS New Threat of another marriage
- 9 years ago
Daish & ISIS But Hanan still was not safe, nor was she free. She received news that the ISIS emir, or local leader, wanted to see her.
"I said I can't go, I can't meet anyone. So they sent me the women," she says.
She describes the female envoys as non-Syrian. One she says was from Tunisia; the other spoke a foreign language she did not understand, possibly a European one.
She says they were authoritative, abrupt and unsympathetic, and seemed to have no qualms about the role they were playing. The meeting lasted 10 minutes.
"They wanted me to marry another fighter. They said I can't stay without a husband."

Hanan's parents fled to an area controlled by the Syrian regime. Hanan, using routes she won't disclose for security reasons, managed to get to relatives in Turkey.
"I don't know how many like me he had, I don't know how many like me there are," she says of the husband forced on her. "They take whatever they want. They marry and divorce at will."
An activist group named Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently has documented hundreds of cases of women being forced into marriage with ISIS fighters. About a third of them are under the age of 18.
Hanan says that once a girl turns 13, she will rarely leave the house. She remains imprisoned by fear of becoming the next bride, the next slave, the next prize claimed by ISIS under the guise of "marriage."
Hanan says her experience has shredded her soul and stripped her of her dignity.
"Even now I cannot grasp what I have been through, that I went through this. I am destroyed. CNN NEWS TV
