Baalbek, Lebanon: The Lebanese Army has arrested a wife of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi on the Lebanon-Syria border, security sources told The Daily Star Tuesday.
An Army source said that Intelligence officers arrested Baghdadi's wife and their son more than a week ago as they tried to enter Lebanon from Syria using fake IDs after receiving a tip from Western intelligence agencies.
The source identified the wife as Saja Hamid al-Dulaimi, who was one of the prisoners released earlier this year from Syrian jails in exchange for the 13 Maaloula nuns abducted by the Nusra Front last December.
