JIHADI 'JUSTICE'

Inside the courthouse where prisoners were kept in tiny cages and ISIS judges handed out death sentences

The courthouse is thought to have been used by ISIS fighters to hold and sentence their enemies as recently as June

STARTLING footage taken by Iraq military personnel shows the interior of a chilling room, where extremist ISIS 'judges' held court.

Soldiers stumbled upon the Fallujah courthouse - a place where prisoners were kept in tiny cages and some of the most brutal sentences were given out.

The cages where prisoners are kept are cramped and look well-used.

They come in different sizes - meaning the men and women contained in the bars may be forced to stay standing, kneeling or lying down.

The group of cages are apparently in the waiting area, so many different and terrified people would be caged together near the court where they could be sentenced to death.

Some may have spent an extraordinary amount of time in the cages and makeshift cells as they awaited trial following apparent crimes.

While the holding cells and cages are unlike most other global courtrooms, the court itself is recognisable as a court of law.

A judges bench presides over the room, with rows of chairs and benches for court staff.

The courtroom itself is now abandoned, but the air of terror and fear which still presides within is evident.

"They made different shapes of cages for different positions, such as kneeling and standing. This shows the brutality of this terrorist organisation.

"Most of [the defendants] were innocent locals and members of security forces."
