A court in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad on Sunday sentenced French citizen Melina Boughedir to life imprisonment over her affiliation with ISIL terrorist organization, French BFMTV broadcaster reported.
According to the broadcaster, the 27-year-old woman could have been sentenced to death under the Iraqi counterterrorism law.
The French woman with her four underage children was captured by the Iraqi forces in the city of Mosul in July 2017. In February this year, the Baghdad penal court sentenced her to a seven-month imprisonment for illegal entry on the territory of Iraq.
