BEIRUT - The Islamic State has banned the sale of female captives to other people, only allowing dealings between jihadists who belong to the radical group.
The jihadists threatened to punish whoever violates this order in the IS-dominated territories in Syria, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, or SOHR, said, citing activists.
SOHR added that IS released this statement after an Iraqi man "bought two Yazidi captives from an IS jihadist for $12,000 each and then returned them to their families."
The radicals vowed afterwards to retaliate against those involved in the escape of the two Yazidi captives or anyone withholding information.
The sale of female captives in Syria and Iraq has become one of the terrorist group's most important sources of profit.
