Dramatic footage has emerged online showing a suspected ISIS fighter crying after he was taken prisoner by Kurdish forces in Iraq.

The prisoner does not appear to have any noticeable injuries as he seats in the back of the armoured truck.

Much to the amusement of the Kurdish forces, the prisoner cries and moans loudly as he waits to be taken away.

Screaming: The footage shows the prisoner screaming shortly after he was captured by the Peshmerga

Dressed in civilian clothing, the prisoner appears to have had his hands bound behind his back and his eyes covered with a makeshift blindfold.

His painful wailing noises gain no sympathy from his captors, thought to be members of the Kurdish Peshmerga.

The Kurdish flag can be seen flying on its pole in the background but the desert landscape of the location remains unknown.

Concerning: A second extended video of the incident reveals that the prisoner was crying because he had just been tasered in the left thigh

One other prisoner, dressed in a black leather jacket can be seen sitting quietly in the back of the truck.

The footage was originally uploaded last December but has since re-emerged, attracting plenty of comments on social media.

A second extended video of the incident reveals that the prisoner was crying because he had just been tasered in the left thigh.

Social media users have been quick to speculate about the fate of the prisoner, whose identity remains unknown, with some comments suggesting he will be tortured.
