Police arrested the teen, as well as another person suspected of sheltering him.

 

Eman, 20, was known for posting ‘rebellious’ photos and videos on social media including pictures of her smoking cigarettes, voicing her opinions, and wearing crop tops and a crucifix.

 

It is believed she had not converted from Islam to Christianity but merely wore the item as a fashion statement.

In a post on Facebook in August last year, she wrote: ‘I believe that humans will always suffer at the hands of other humans.’

 

Her death follows at least ten other women including a 23-year-old transgender woman Doski Azad, who was also shot dead, allegedly by her brother in Iraq’s Kurdistan region this year.
