Afrinpost – Special
Islamic militias affiliated with the Turkish occupation and the Muslim Brotherhood known as the “Syrian National Army” continue to violate the Kurdish indigenous people in the occupied region of Afrin, through kidnappings, torture, and enforced disappearances that occur in front of the silent international community eyes.
In this context, the Afrinpost correspondent in the “Mobata / Ma’batli” district stated that it has been more than two years and the fate of the young man “Rifaat Murad” from the people of the village “Korkan Fawqani” of the district, is still unknown, as he was arrested in the city Market in the occupied city of Afrin, on the pretext that the young man was working in the municipality during the “self-administration”.
Activists had also reported on August 1, 2018, that the Islamic militia had kidnapped a 26-year-old man in Afrin and took him to Turkey, and they mentioned that the gunmen kidnapped him from the commercial district on Raju Road in the city of Afrin, and took him to a prison Of the Turkish intelligence in Hatay.
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.
