Islamic militias affiliated with the Turkish occupation and the Muslim Brotherhood continue kidnapping operations against the remaining Kurdish indigenous people in the occupied Afrin region, practicing all forms of torture against them, in order to force them to pay large financial ransoms, in the context of the displacement plan supervised by the intelligence of the Turkish occupation.
In this context, “Human Rights Organization – Afrin” said that the militia of “Saad bin Abi Waqas” kidnapped the citizen “Bakr Ahmed Haji” called “Zeno” from the village of “Anqalah” of the “Shieh / Sheikh Al-Hadid” district, who is / 35 / years old.
The organization noted that the kidnappers were in contact with his relatives in order to pay a financial ransom of / 2000 / US dollars to release him, knowing that he had been kidnapped previously, and paid the ransom for two times, and that the militia gunmen carried out excavation and bulldozing works in search of treasures and archaeological finds below Old houses in “Anqala” village, as it is a village with an ancient antique nature.
Islamic militias rely on kidnapping as a means of obtaining money, which is one of the methods they followed since the start of the occupation of Afrin in March 2018, while the Turkish occupation supervises these operations as one of the methods of displacing the Kurds and preventing the displaced from returning.
