Some '514' verdicts have been delivered to those found guilty of joining the Islamic State (IS) by Iraq's Supreme Court.

Islamic State militants captured in Iraq will be facing the possibility of a death penalty.

It said interrogations were taking about six months for those simply accused of IS membership, but anyone accused of actively taking part in the jihadist group’s operations could be questioned for up to a year. It has also issued death sentences for other foreign IS members, although they have not yet been carried out.

Around 1,000 suspected foreign IS fighters are in detention in northeast Syria, in addition to around 9,000 foreign women and children in camps there. Iraq has also already tried thousands of its own nationals arrested on home soil for joining IS, including women.
