(Global News) A B.C. woman who returned home from Syria last year was part of the all-female battalion of the Islamic State, according to RCMP allegations unsealed on Tuesday.
Kimberly Polman served in the Katibah Nusaybah, an ISIS branch that provided weapons training to women, the RCMP wrote in a report summarizing its investigation.
The 122-page police report, obtained by Global News, said Katibah Nusaybah trained Polman “to fight physically and with weapons,” before she was assigned to an ISIS medical unit.
She also helped move weapons for ISIS, was an informant for its secret police and married two members of the group, most recently a builder of explosive devices, the RCMP alleged.
