Woman convicted of enslaving Yazidi victim in Germany.

A German court has convicted a woman, Nadine K., for being part of the Islamic State militant group and taking part in abusing a Yazidi woman. The court found her guilty of crimes against humanity as well as aiding and abetting genocide. The presiding judge in the case said the accused had abused the Yazidi woman "for her own purposes as a household slave" for three years during her time with Islamic State in Syria and Iraq. Nadine K. is believed to have become radicalized during her studies in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.
