IS militants have controlled Mosul since June 10, the second day of a major offensive that saw jihadist fighters seize swathes of land in five Iraqi provinces.
They have used the city, Iraq's second largest, as a de facto capital for the Iraqi half of the "caliphate" which their leadership proclaimed in June and also includes large parts of Syria.
"After going after the ethnic and religious minorities, they are now hunting down Sunni members of civil society groups and anyone remotely connected with the government," Edwar said.
She said IS was probably trying to sow maximum fear among the population by openly targeting women.
"When you abduct and kill women, you are really spreading horror," she said.
On September 22, IS executed a women's rights activist, Samira Saleh al-Nuaimi, reportedly because she had condemned the demolition of heritage sites by IS on social media.
Edwar also said two men, a judge and a deputy prosecutor, had been executed over the past two weeks.
A source at the Mosul morgue confirmed that their bodies had been brought in earlier this month.

I wonder how ISIS dispatches women? Do they get beheaded like the men, or do they get stoned and maybe raped too?
Coming soon to America. They’re already coming in under Barry’s open borders program. Thanks Barry!!! U da man!
Perhaps Barry and company think they will never be held accountable for what they are doing.
Funny (not really)...
I have a nephew who JUST rotated out of Afghanistan (for the last time) and is on his way back stateside as we speak...
And he is getting out of the Marines at the end of this year...(Big mistake, but that is another discussion)...
His wife, all 90 lbs. soaking wet, is fresh out of bootcamp and her training to be an Army Combat Medic, is in the Army reserves, and for some reason her unit just got activated and she is deploying in the near future for somewhere between Kuwait, and Afghanistan...She called me about this a couple of days ago...
So, the deployment being something some of us thought couldn’t happen because the war in Iraq was supposed to be over...I guess this is what they call a “watch my right hand, but pay no attention to the left hand, or the guy behind the curtain, situation”...
Not that I am concerned too much for her (niece) but just damn, you cannot ever believe a damn thing you hear or see anymore from anyone connected to D.C., not that anyone on our side of the aisle would give us a heads up on BS like this, but hey, what do I know...
Just an all around run around...No wonder why a lot of kids these days are not re-enlisting or extending...
What they need to do is send a bunch of us relatively “old farts” over there, and let us wreck havoc on the bad guys...We may not move as fast as we used to, but we are older, wiser and mean as hell, and at least “my” trigger finger still works pretty damn well...
I would take their place in a heartbeat...
I would not hold me breath...they will all skate and laugh at us for thinking there will be accountability...
I think the most repugnant thing about a post Obama reign will be his constant interjection of himself in all issues...
You know, he is after all the smartest man ever to grace the oval office...
“IS executed a women’s rights activist, Samira Saleh al-Nuaimi”
If these women cease being so islamophobes ( and Israel’s occupation of Palestine ends), Muslims will bIS executed a women’s rights activist, Samira Saleh al-Nuaimi, then be happy.
The great satan keyboard caused my post to be scrambled.
But things can quickly change in ways you or I could never imagine.
Crimes against women, shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the rats will hear you so will the feminazi’s
No one ever held Clinton accountable for his myriad of crimes.
No deal unless we fight under WWII rules of engagement.
Plus, we're going to need a flame-throwing version of the M1A1 Abrams tank which I'm not sure even exists.
As I said, under the current set up nothing will happen to the thugs and criminals running things.
If this country ever is seriously tested, though, that will change. And the way things are going that seems more of a possibility by the day.
I would go with you. I would work for food, clothing, transportation,a good weapon with all the ammunition I could use and maybe an incidental death benefit package. In addition I would request some air support and artillery support on occasion. We could be the Sixty Something Brigade and let the youngsters have a chance at a full life. However, I am afraid this would never happen for many reasons, not the least of which would be our inability to follow the current, strict rules of engagement.

Calling these satanists “savages” is unfair to savages.
The Democrats and leftists are waging a war on women by not actively supporting ground troops to wipe out these demons.
Well, don’t expect help from America. This country is too busy being thrilled about the courts falling in for homo “marriage.”
This is the Islamic civil war, which rages on until there is no Islam. I say, arm all sides.
