Germany arrests woman, accused of joining ISIS, on return home
A German woman accused of joining the ISIS group in
Syria and marrying an ISIS fighter has been arrested on arrival in Germany,
reported The Associated Press on Saturday.
Federal prosecutors said the woman, identified only
as Nasim A., was arrested Friday evening.
They added Saturday she had been detained by Kurdish
forces early this year and held at the al-Hol camp in northeastern Syria.
Prosecutors said she traveled to Syria in late 2014
and married an ISIS fighter.
The couple allegedly moved to Tal Afar, Iraq, where
they lived in an ISIS-seized house.
The woman ran the household, receiving $100 per
month from ISIS and leaving her husband free to fight for ISIS.
Prosecutors did not detail the circumstances of her
return to Germany. Turkey is currently engaged in a push to deport ISIS
members.
