[size=18][size=18]UNITED NATIONS – Human rights lawyer Amal Clooney says she is requesting the transfer of a female member of the Islamic State extremist group to face justice for crimes against women from Iraq's Yazidi minority and American hostage Kayla Mueller, who was killed in 2015.
Clooney represents Yazidi women and girls who were held in the house of Umm Sayyaf, the wife of Islamic State financier Abu Sayyaf. She said the Yazidis were raped by IS men and Mueller by IS leader Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi.
Clooney told the U.N. Security Council on Tuesday that Umm Sayyaf "locked them in a room, instigated their beatings and put makeup on them to 'prepare' them for rape."
She did not say where Umm Sayyaf is being held.[/size][/size]

Amal Clooney: George Clooney's wife looks chic at United Nations meeting in New York (Image: Rex)
International Human Rights lawyer Amal Clooney, 41, looked impeccably dressed when she stepped out in New York yesterday.
The effortlessly stylish barrister wore a classic little black dress when she attended a United Nations Security Council meeting in New York.
The beautiful brunette opted for a fitted knee-length dress, with buttons down the front and a high neckline, for her important U.N. meeting.
The wife of American actor George Clooney, 57, finished off her chic look with nude pumps and a pair of large dark sunglasses to protect her eyes from the sun as she made her way across the concourse outside the U.N. headquarters.
Amal wore her glossy hair in it’s signature look of big bouncy curls and carried a large leather handbag as she walked with human rights activist Nadia Murad.
The mother-of-two, who parents twins Ella and Alexander one, with her husband of four years, wore elegant make-up and dark coloured nail varnish on her fingernails.
Inside the New York chamber, Amal spoke out against the use of rape as a means of war as the United Nations Security Council consider a resolution concerning sexual violence in conflict.
The humans rights lawyer was representing Yazidi women who suffered at the hands of Isis men and sat next to Nadia, an Iraqi Yazidi, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last year for her work towards classifying rape as a weapon of war.

Excellent speech by Amal. She articulated so well the background of the sexual violence ISIS perpetrated on women and girls and how the world should move forward to bring these brutes to justice.

Re: Amal Clooney at the UN Security Council now
Katie,
at least the Express mentioned in the last paragraph what Amal did there.
Reminds me of the articles when Amal was "showing ofv her baby bump at the UN"
Imagine an article about Secretary General Guterrez, describing him in asimilar manner: "Mr. Guterrez, who is married to the former beauty queen Emilia and father of four children, wore a chic navy suit from Armani's upcoming 2019 summer season, combined with a light blue button-down shirt, tailored by xyz in London. His handmade black leather shoes by shoemaker xyz in Rome who is well known for making shoes for lots of politicians around the globe, including President Trump and King Felipe of Spain. His salt-and-pepper hair must have been cut recently and completes the distinguished look of the UN Secretary General."
Of course I've no idea what Mr. Guterrez wears and who he's married with...

Re: Amal Clooney at the UN Security Council now
I think Amal Clooney is So Brave to take on
this work.
It's made me very tearful to hear about those atrocities.
I don't know where she gets her strength from to
carry on her work in this area.
I do hope that she and George and all of their
families are kept safe from harm.
