Takfiri Militants Behead Fellow Militant: Aleppo

Local Editor

Takfiri militants operating in Syria's northwestern city of Aleppo beheaded a fellow wounded militant after mistaking him for a Syrian army soldier.

A video surfaced on the Internet earlier this week showing extremist militants displaying the man's severed head in front of a small crowd. The man had been wounded outside Aleppo before being beheaded.

The dreadful act was perpetrated by the militant members of the so-called Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS), who thought they had cut off the head of a Shia Muslim.

However afterwards, a spokesman for the al-Qaeda affiliated group said that the victim used to fight alongside other Takfiri militants. The ISIS issued a statement on Thursday and asked for "forgiveness" for chopping off and putting on display the head of a comrade in Aleppo.

This is not the first time that Takfiri agents are killed by fellow militants as many of them have lost their lives in infighting over different issues.
