Afrinpost – Special
Islamic militias affiliated with the Turkish occupation continue kidnapping the remaining Kurdish indigenous people in the occupied Afrin region, practicing all forms of torture against them, in order to force them to pay a large financial ransom, in the context of the displacement plan supervised by the Turkish occupation intelligence.
In the context, the Afrinpost correspondent in the “Shieh / Sheikh Al-Hadid” district reported that armed men from the “Waqas Brigade” militia affiliated to the Muslim Brotherhood had kidnapped the Kurdish minor Hasan Nasro Shukri, 16 years ago, From his home in the village of “Anqaleh”, to release him after a week of kidnapping, after receiving a financial ransom from his family, about 3 million Syrian pounds.
The reporter indicated that during his abduction, the minor was subjected to severe torture, which led to the blindness in one of his eyes, in addition to other injuries on his body, which forced him to stay in bed until this time.
Islamic militias rely on kidnapping as a means of obtaining money, which is one of the methods they followed since the beginning of the occupation of Afrin, while the Turkish occupation supervises these operations as one of the methods of displacing the Kurds and preventing the displaced from returning.
In this context, the “Afrinpost” reporter had confirmed on January 9 that the Islamic militias affiliated with the Turkish occupation and the Muslim Brotherhood had released a kidnapped Kurdish youth while he was in a deplorable condition, and the reporter said that the Kurdish youth “Dilovan Ismat Ibrahim” from the village of Chumzna, of the “Mobata / Ma’batli” district, is 18 years old and had disappeared in mysterious circumstances, after receiving a phone call on the twelfth of December 2019, when he left directly from his house in the Ashrafieh neighborhood, in the middle of the occupied Afrin center, and he never came back.
A week after the young man, Dilovan, was kidnapped, gunmen contacted his family and demanded a financial ransom of six million Syrian pounds to release him, as his family managed to secure the money and he was handed over to the mediator, who in turn delivered the money to the militia (without being able to identify the mediator and the militia), and the correspondent added that: On January 6, the gunmen released the young man, “Dilovan”, as he was dumped from a car of the militants in the industrial zone, and he was in a very bad health and psychological condition.
The reporter indicated that when he met his family with their son, they found him in an abnormal situation as a result of being forced to take large quantities of hallucinogenic injections, while the effects of torture appeared clearly on his body as a result of severe beatings, but the worst part is that the young man “Dilovan” has lost his memory.
