days ago posted horrifying photographs of a man having his
hand cut off in a live-update on Twitter.
According to them, the man, an alleged thief, had admitted to
his crimes and requested to be punished in this way, to 'cleanse
him of sin'.
One photo shows the blindfolded man with his hand being
held down on a table while surrounded by a large group of
militant rebels.
A man dressed in a traditional white robe stands in front of
the table, and on the right side is a man in a black balaclava
holding a large sword.
A later photo shows the man with his hand severed, the limb
resting on the bloodied table, the man seemingly passed out
after his hand had been severed.
The live-feed of the amputation, which was carried out in the
northern town of Maskanah, near Aleppo, was re-tweeted by
several Jihadi social media channels.
However, the pictures have been deleted from Twitter and the
Twitter account that posted the images suspended from the social networking site.
