The wife of a now-deceased Islamic State leader was charged Monday for her alleged role in last year's death of American aid worker Kayla Jean Mueller.
Nisreen Assad Ibrahim Bahar, 25, the widow of former ISIL leader Abu Sayyaf, allegedly conspired to provide support to the terrorist group, often forcibly holding Mueller in the couple's homes where she was subjected to repeated sexual abuse by ISIL chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Mueller died in February 2015.
Bahar, also known as Umm Sayyaf, "knew how Mueller was treated by Baghdadi when Mueller was held against her will in Sayyaf's home,'' federal prosecutors said.
"The Sayyafs held young women who were sold or traded to ISIL men, and the women were characterized as being owned by the ISIL men who acquired them,'' the government documents allege. While Mueller, who was kidnapped in 2013 by ISIL soldiers, was being held with two other women, Umm Sayyaf allegedly threatened them, asserting that she would "kill them if they did not listen to her.''
