When 25-year-old Jwan* was abducted by ISIS from her village in Shingal region, she said that the two children of her uncle would be hers, because she thought of being treated better as a mother. ISIS kept her to Tal Afar, Mosul and Raqqa where she was sold to a married man. He raped her and realized that she was a virgin and the kids of her uncle were sold to another men. Because Jwan could not read Arabic, the men forced her to hear the spoken Quran on a laptop. After five months of captivity a Kurdish neighbor helped her to flee to northern Iraq.
