Aide of Abu Azriel, Shia fighter who sliced burnt corpse ‘like shwarma’, is now refugee in Austria
Aide of Abu Azriel (Father of Angel of Death), most celebrated Iraqi Shia militiamen, also known as Iraqi Rambo, fled to Europe.
Abu Azriel recently was seen in barbaric video, where he sliced burnt corpse of Islamic State fighter ‘like shwarma’ (link, video, you were warned).
Information about desertion is published in hostile sources, most notably in London-based Al-Quds al-Arabia, but seems to be confirmed by Abu Azriel himself in this video.
He is calling the recent outflow of the militias “treason” and “conspiracy” intended by the US and Israel to deplete the Hashd. (Hashd ash-Shaadi, Popular Mobilization Units, most powerful militia in Iraq). He is saying it will do them no good to leave their people for dead and he wants them to help instead of leaving. “Think about the people you leave”.
Al-Quds al-Arabia published article ‘The escape of most prominent aide to Abu Azriel aide to Austria’.
The guy in question is called Sadjid Ali al-Atubi who operated in Baiji refinery area in Salah ed-Din province.
Abu Azriel until the very last moment refused to believe in Atubi desertion. He claimed that Atubi is on a lengthy leave and was ‘busy with family matters’.
Nevertheless, some evidence emerged, that Atubi is on his way to Europe. Atubi was accompanied by Cheb Billal al-Bayati, who describes details of journey. After making it to Greece, Atubi is now finally in refugee camp Traiskirhen, near Vienna, and wants ‘to begin a new life’.
In the meantime ‘Iraqi activists’ – most probably, Sunni enemies of Hashd, began to publish video clips with former Shia militia fighters arriving to European countries.
Human Rights Commission in Iraqi Parliament had confirmed, that more than 400 000 Iraqi subjects immigrated since July. More than 70% of them – young men.
