French Daesh midwife faces 30 years’ imprisonment

(Arab News) A French woman accused of acting as a midwife for Daesh is facing more than 30 years’ imprisonment, the Times reported.

Douha Mounib, 32, is on trial in Paris after having spent several years in a French prison following her arrest in Turkiye in 2017 and subsequent repatriation.

She is one of more than 30 women from France alleged to be former members of Daesh, with many having returned to the country from Syria or Turkiye following the collapse of the terror group.

Mounib, who was completing her third year of midwifery studies at the time she first traveled to Syria in 2014, returned to the caliphate a second time a year later.
