Intelligence sources say documents discovered at an IS base in Mosul prohibit discussion of the death of IS leader al-Baghdadi in a move to prevent rebellion among members of the group.

The document, distributed to senior IS leaders, also stressed that "ISIL (IS) will survive even if al-Baghdadi dies", while asking members of the terrorist group to be patient and take orders from their commanders.

A local Iraqi source in Salahuddin province, north of Baghdad, reported on July 6 that the IS terrorist group had arrested several of its members in the eastern areas of the province for leaking news of al-Baghdadi's death.

IS arrested more than 20 of its members in the Eastern Makhoul villages of Salahuddin for leaking information about al-Baghdadi’s death, the source said. The terrorist group accused them of inciting an internal uprising.

IS militants are reportedly confused by the ban on talking about al-Baghdadi's death, especially after the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group arrested members who leaked the news.

A local source also said that earlier this month, IS burned alive Abu Qatibeh - a senior IS leader - for allegedly revealing information about Al-Baghdadi's death during his sermon at a prayer in the town of Tal Afar.

Sources said that just a few hours after arresting Abu Qatibeh on charges of internal rebellion, the IS terrorist group executed him in front of dozens of people in central Tal Afar.

"Abu Qatibeh, a close friend of al-Baghdadi, had implicitly supported earlier revelations about the IS leader's death and wept during Friday prayers, raising questions. IS initially kept the matter under wraps, but later arrested and executed him on charges of rebellion," the source added./.
