ERBIL, Kurdistan Region — A Kurdish official said on Tuesday ISIS had taken to killing tailors in its stronghold Mosul who refused to sew the clothes of its Afghan fighters.
 
“ISIS arrested 15 tailors inside Mosul after they refused to sew the Afghani clothes for the militants of ISIS, and today they executed four of the detainees," Saeed Mamuzini, a Kurdistan Democratic Party official in Mosul, told Rudaw. 
 
Mamuzini also claimed a large mass grave with over 60 bodies had been discovered inside Mosul, but did not elaborate on who found it, or how they would have been allowed to do so under ISIS’ watch.
 
On Monday, Islamic State social media accounts announced the group executed 40 militants in the town of Tal Afar in northern Mosul province after they abandoned their weapons in battles against the Iraqi army and the Peshmerga.
