ISIS’s torture HQ: Metal chains and pipes used to beat women who refused to cover their face or wore make-up in public are discovered by Syrian forces in the city of Manbij

US-backed forces have toured an ISIS ‘religious police’ headquarters where women were tortured with poles and chains if they were spotted without their faces covered, in the city of Manbij.
Syrian Democratic Forces reclaimed the building this week and posted a video of the horrific torture apparatus they found inside, after they successfully defeated the terror group near the Turkish border in northern Syria.

In the video, an SDF fighter explains the ‘Hasba centre’ is what ISIS call its ‘religious police’ headquarters.

Men would observe the attire and behaviour of the local people and bring them to the torture centre if they were spotted breaking the strict Sharia Law rules.

Some of them are in charge of arresting smokers. Some of them deal with the people who do not dress in the way Daesh ordered them to.

‘They bring wrongdoers to the Hasba, people who wear tight pants, women who do not cover their eyes. Do you see the covered market? Women always shop there, if they uncover their eyes to see they get brought here. It is a total humiliation, a humiliation to all humanity,’ he said.

‘In these rooms, some of the worst violations have been committed against the people of Manbij,’ the fighter explained as he toured the shattered rooms.

‘We found some torture devices like a metal chain that Hasba members used for hitting, and another pipe for beating women who break their rules,’ he added.
