WP: the head of the "Islamic State" al-Mawla gave information to the US military about other terrorists in Iraq
The current leader of the terrorist organization "Islamic State" * Amir Mohammed Saeed Abdel Rahman al-Mawla was previously an informant for the US military in Iraq. This is written by The Washington Post, which studied the declassified protocols of interrogations of al-Maul.
Amir Mohammed Said Abdel-Rahman al-Mawla, also known as Abu Ibrahim al-Hashemi al-Qurashi, became the leader of IS after the death of the previous head of the organization, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, in 2019. According to The Washington Post, US intelligence agencies have established that al-Mawla was known to them earlier when he was imprisoned by the US military in Iraq in 2007-2008.
According to documents released by the US Military Academy's Center for Combating Terrorism, al-Mawla, who was at that time a 31-year-old mid-level IS commander, helped the US military.
Al-Mawla made sketches of suspected terrorists, and also named restaurants where IS members dined. During one of his interrogations, al-Mawla revealed the phone numbers of 19 ISIS terrorists and revealed how much money they were earning. In addition, he provided precise directions on how to find the secret headquarters of the IS media department, down to the color of the front door and the time of day the office would be occupied.
"Al-Mawla was a songbird of unique talent and ability," said Daniel Milton, an assistant professor at the US Military Academy's Center for Combating Terrorism, describing the amount of data the terrorist revealed to the US military.
The latest protocols of interrogation of al-Mauli dated June 2008, writes The Washington Post. The exact date of his release is unknown.
In 2020, the US State Department doubled a reward from $5 million to $10 million for information leading to al-Mauli's whereabouts.
