Afrinpost – Special
Afrinpost has learned from its sources that the militia of “Jaish al-Ahfad” affiliated with the Turkish occupation and the Muslim Brotherhood imposes extremist religious traditions on the remaining residents of the Kurdish “Hassan Dera” village, which is affiliated with “Bulbula / Bulbul” district, and it forces the men of the village to to perform unfree labor, and to punish those who rejected the orders brutally.
The sources stated that the militia led by “Abu Sulaiman” does not allow the remaining residents of “Hassan Yara” village to hold social events such as engagement ceremonies, weddings, etc. in a mixed-gender manner, and prevents women from appearing in the village squares except by wearing the veil, according to the extremist traditions that they believe in, regardless of the culture of the people of the occupied territory.
The sources added that the militia also enslaved the men of the village and used them forcibly to perform unfree labor without any religious or moral deterrent.
The militia had kidnapped the Kurdish citizen, “Salim Sido Khalil, 30,” from his home on the pretext of finding an individual weapon near his home! They took him to the militia headquarters in the village, the gunmen completely blindfolded and bound him and then beat him and tortured him, and then released him, as he is still bedridden, as a result of the brutal torture he suffered by the militia militants.
The sources confirmed that the real reason for the attack on “Selim” was his refusal to work to expand the village mosque without pay, and the sources noted that the militia is forcing the men of the village to work for free in excavating the archaeological sites in the village, in search of the alleged burials and archaeological treasures.
