Islamic State jihadists say they have thrown a gay man off a rooftop and stoned him to death for blasphemy. The jihadists have also published a photograph to corroborate the punishment handed over to the victim, by what they call as the Islamic court. "The Islamic court in Wilayet al-Furat [Iraq-Syria frontier] decided that a man who has practiced sodomy must be thrown off the highest point in the city, and then stoned to death," read a statement released by the IS.
