Tripoli, 29 August 2015:

A member of Derna’s mujahideen who tried to talk into surrendering a friend who was a . . .[restrict]supporter of the Islamic State (IS) was beheaded by him today and had his head thrown into the street. Three locals also died, two of them children, in the siege this afternoon that followed the killing.

Events are reported to have started have when the supporter, named as Abdulkarim Badr, fed up with hiding at home since the mujahideen took over the town in June, went on a rampage, shooting into the air. Neighbours alerted the mujahideen, nine of whose members then laid siege to the Badr’s home.

According to a source in Derna, one of the mujadideen, Shadi Al-Ghazanni, offered to mediate with Badr, whom he knew. This was agreed but shortly after he went into the house, his severed head was thrown out of the window. This was followed by a gunfight in which Badr then threw an explosive out of the window killing two children and an elderly man, watching the events.
