'WHEN I LOOKED UP I SAW A HUGE MAN. HE LOOKED LIKE A MONSTER': THE HORRIFIC ABUSE NADIA MURAD SUFFERED

Nadia Murad said she had to 'take herself off to another world' as she was brutally raped

Nadia was part of the non-Muslim Yazidi community, which was stormed by jihadis in 2014.

Six of her eight brothers were murdered in front of her, alongside 300 other men from her village, before she was snatched and repeatedly raped by 'countless' men several times a day.

Her mother was killed while Nadia and her two sisters and teenage female cousins and nieces, were transported to the ISIS stronghold of Mosul with more than 150 other girls before being subjected to horrific sexual abuse.

She said she had to 'take herself off to another world' as she was brutally raped.

Nadia was eventually able to escape some three months later, fleeing to the safety of a refugee camp before finding asylum in Germany.

The young girls were even raped as they were transported to Mosul. Nadia told the United Nations Security Council in December: 'My mother saw them killing my brothers and then they took my mother and killed her.

'I was already orphaned as I didn't have a father, all I had in the war was my mother.

'But when they took me to Mosul and raped me, I forgot my mother and brothers. Because what they were doing to the women was more difficult than death.

'Imagine until now, for more than a year and a half, girls as young as nine are being rented and sold out [for sex].'

Nadia told politicians at the United Nations: 'I implore you, get rid of Daesh (Islamic State) completely.'

Reliving the horrific abuse, which started when she was being transported to Mosul, she said: 'Along the way, they humiliated us. They touched us and violated us.

'They took us to Mosul with more than 150 other Yazidi families. In a building, there were thousands of Yazidi families and children who were exchanged as gifts.

'One of these people came up to me. He wanted to take me. I looked down at the floor. I was absolutely petrified. When I looked up, I saw a huge man. He looked like a monster.'

The brave Iraqi women have vowed to continue speaking out on behalf of those who suffered a similar fate

She continued: ‘I cried. I cried out, I said “I’m too young and you’re huge”. He hit me. He kicked me and beat me.

‘And a few minutes later, another man came up to me. I still was looking at the floor.

‘I saw that he was a little bit smaller. I begged him. I implored him for him to take me. I was incredibly scared of the first man.'

Describing the man who took her, she said: 'He forced me to get dressed and put my makeup on and then that terrible night, he did it.

'He forced me to serve as part of his military faction, he humiliated me every day.'

She tried to escape, but was stopped by a guard.

She said: 'Imagine until now, for more than a year and a half, girls as young as nine are being rented and sold out [for sex]'

Nadia recalled: 'That night he beat me. He asked me to take my clothes off. He put me in a room with the guards and then they proceeded to commit their crime until I fainted.'

And she said to politicians: 'I implore you, get rid of Daesh (Islamic State) completely.'

Through tears, she said: ''They were committing all kinds; murder, rape and displacing people by force in the name of Islam.

'Many people may think my story is difficult, but many more had more difficult than mine. They killed six of my brothers, but there are families that have lost 10 brothers.'
