New York – The U.S. Government has put a 25 million dollars offer on Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, an increase from the initial 10 million dollars. The U.S. Government announced the new reward in a statement issued by the Department of State. “The U.S. Department of State’s Rewards for Justice Program is increasing to 25 million dollars its reward offer for information leading to the location, arrest, or conviction of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, also known as Ibrahim ‘Awwad Ibrahim ‘Ali al-Badri, also known as Abu Du’a. “This represents a significant increase from the previous reward offer of 10 million dollars announced in October 2011.” The statement said in recent years, ISIL has gained the allegiance of jihadist groups and radicalised individuals around the world, and has inspired attacks in the U.S. “Under Al-Baghdadi, ISIL has been responsible for the deaths of thousands of civilians in the Middle East, including the brutal murder of numerous civilian hostages from Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Abu Bakr al-Baghdad “The group also has conducted chemical weapons attacks in Iraq and Syria in defiance of the longstanding global norm against the use of these appalling weapons, and has enabled or directed terrorist attacks beyond the borders of its self-declared caliphate.” In June 2014, ISIL, also known as Da’esh, seized control of portions of Syria and Iraq, self-declared a so-called Islamic caliphate, and named al-Baghdadi as caliph. In 2011, the Department of State designated Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist under Executive Order 13224. Al-Baghdadi was also added to the UN Security Council ISIL (Da’esh) and al-Qaida Sanctions Committee in 2011. Al-Baghdadi was the leader of al-Qa’ida in Iraq (AQI), which subsequently morphed into ISIL. “More information about Al-Baghdadi is located on the Rewards for Justice website atwww.rewardsforjustice.net. “We encourage anyone with information about al-Baghdadi to contact the Rewards for Justice office via e-mail (no2daesh@rewards4justice.co), by phone (1-800-877-3927 in North America), or by mail (Rewards for Justice, Washington, D.C., 20520-0303, USA). “All information will be kept strictly confidential,” the statement read. The Rewards for Justice Program is administered by the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Diplomatic Security. Since its inception in 1984, the program has paid in excess of 125 million dollars to more than 80 people who provided actionable information that helped bring terrorists to justice or prevented acts of international terrorism worldwide.

Arsenal fans are not waiting for the first north London derby of the season to reignite their long-running rivalry with Tottenham after poking fun at their £30m signing of Moussa Sissoko from Newcastle, with the France midfielder insisting for years that he wants to play for the Gunners. Sissoko went public on more than one occasion with his desire to play for Arsenal, having seen a string of French internationals pass through the club during Arsene Wenger’s 20-year reign. But while Arsenal considered making a move for the 27-year-old in recent years, his terrible form last season looked to put them off for good. He did impress at Euro 2016 as hosts France reached the final, though that only annoyed Newcastle fans further due to a belief that he simply hadn’t tried to perform to his best level during the 2015/16 campaign as the Magpies were relegated to the Championship. At one point, Sissoko looked to be on his way to Everton after they lodged a £30m offer, but the move trigger...

Melania Trump, the wife of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, on Thursday filed a defamation lawsuit against the U.S. publisher of the Daily Mail and an unrelated blogger over their reports (since retracted) that she worked as an escort in the 1990s. According to Melania Trump’s lawyer, the suit seeks $150 million in damages for the egregious, malicious and harmful actions of the publication and the blogger, and which were “tremendously damaging to her personal and professional reputation.” The Daily Mail is one of a number of publications that reprinted reports from a Slovenian magazine, Suzy. The reports concern a former mentor of Melania Trump, modeling agent Paulo Zampolli, who employed her in the 1990s. The Daily Mail, citing Suzy, reported that Zampolli also ran a high-end escort service. Trump and Zampolli both vehemently deny they were ever involved in the escort busine...

Woman accidentally kills herself trying to go 'half-way to heaven' to say goodbye to dead best friend Jazmine Howarth, from Radclifee, thought she could “control death” and meet her friend Dionne Corbett "half-way to heaven". Miss Howarth’s fiancée found her hanged in a community garden near her home, 24 hours after she had visited Ms Corbett’s body in a chapel of rest. An inquest at Rochdale Coroner's Court was told Miss Howarth had written letters saying she wanted to meet mother-of-one Miss Corbett “for one last time”, according to the Mirror. The 25-year-old said after the visit she would carry on with life and “return to the land of the living”. Ms Corbett’s suicide had left Miss Howarth devastated as the pair had been best friends since they were toddlers. The inquest heard that two days before Miss Howarth’s death, her fiancée saw her writing down words from a TV signal that was tuning in and out, believing it be a message from her friend. Coro...
