Boko Haram Beheads 2 Men In ISIS Style After Accusing Them Of Being Spies In New Video

According to a report on Dailymail, a video purporting to show the executions of two alleged spies has been released online by Boko Haram. One of the men is made to make a full confession, explaining his 'crimes' to the camera, before they pair are beheaded and their bodies shown to the camera. The video, titled 'Harvest of Spies', was posted Monday on Twitter by Boko Haram, the SITE intelligence group said today.
The gruesome execution video echoes those posted by ISIS and is the second released by Boko Haram.
It starts by showing a man kneeling in the foreground with a group of Boko Haram fighters approaching him holding a flag used by militant Islamist groups. In a theatrical display previously seen in the execution videos released by ISIS, the men line up behind the victim.

The video then cuts to show two men, identified as Dawoud Muhammad and Muhammad Awlu, led by Boko Haram fighters before being made to kneel. One Boko Haram fighter, whose face has been blurred by the militant group, stands behind Dawoud Muhammad, holding a large knife.

Mr Muhammad tells the camera that he is a farmer from Baga, and is then made to answer a series of questions at knifepoint. He reveals that hat he had been approached by a police officer who offered him money in exchange for infiltrating Boko Haram.

'We went to see a man from Mijka and a police officer that was with him. The officer gave me 5,000 Naira,' Mr Muhammad tells the camera.

Mr Muhammad is made to confess that their mission has been to spy on the 'residents who live here' i.e. Boko Haram, and in exchange for spying, the police officers had promised him that he would 'become rich and will never go back to be a farmer again'.

The camera pans from left to right in slow motion, showing Mr Muhammad and Mr Awlu on their knees as they are executed by Boko Haram fighters. The video fades before the actual beheadings take place, and then shows the two men's bodies with their heads placed upon their chests.
