1. Injustices Committed Against Assyrians in Northern Iraq http://www.aina.org/releases/injustices.htm A. On the morning of January 13, 1996, Wasan Mishael, a 16 year-old Assyrian girl from Simele was kidnapped at gunpoint from her home. Under extreme emotional and physical pressure and abuse, she was forced to denounce her Christian religion and marry one of her kidnapers. The courage of the young girl and the Assyrian population's outrage forced Assyrian political parties to take action and force the capture of the criminals involved. As of this writing, however, the criminals have not been brought to justice under the present law. Those in charge in the area have not shown any justifiable reason for the delay in applying the law in this case, perhaps hoping that it will escape the memory of the Assyrian people. B. On January 20, 1996, another minor was kidnapped. This time the victim was a 13 year-old Assyrian girl named Janet Oshana, who resided in the village of Mulla-Urab, near the town of Zakho. The perpetrator of this crime is a Kurdish man named Khorshid Othman Kalash. Although the Assyrian community's anger forced the kidnaper's apprehension by the authorities, the young girl has not yet been returned to the custody of her parents, and neither has the offender Kalash been brought to face justice. 2. Cases of Kurdish Attacks upon Assyrians of North Iraq http://www.aina.org/releases/cases.htm A. In another incident, on January 13, 1996 armed Kurds kidnaped Wassan Mishael, a sixteen-year-old girl from Simel. She was threatened and forced to renounce her Christian faith. Then she was forced to marry one of the Kurdish kidnappers. The attackers have been found and identified. The information has been brought to the attention of the local governmental officials. There has been no investigation. None of the attackers have been brought to justice, there has been no trial. B. On January 20, 1996 an armed man named Khorsheed Uthman Galash kidnaped Janet Oshanna, a 13-year-old girl from Mal-Urab near Zakho. The kidnapper has subsequently been identified and all information has been provided to the authorities. No investigation has been carried out. The attacker has not been brought to justice. The young girl has not yet been returned to her family. 3. PKK Abducts Assyrian Girl http://www.aina.org/releases/pkk.htm C. Witnesses in North Iraq said that a group of armed PKK guerillas abducted a fifteen-year-old Assyrian girl named Ahlam Patrus Nissan from her village on September 16, 1996. Local farmers and others who witnessed the kidnapping said they saw the girl being carried off with an expression of fear on her face. The PKK admitted that they have the girl but they claim she joined them willfully. They have refused to allow anyone to speak to the teenaged girl. Apparently, it is common practice among some Kurdish tribes that after such abduction, the young girl is forced to marry her kidnapper. It is also common that in such cases, the victim is forced to renounce her Christian faith and convert to Islam. ... According to Kaiser Matti from the village of Khalilane in the Nahla district of northern Iraq of the 3 incidents misreported by AINA only the kidnapping of Wasan Mishael (A) is true and the Assyrian politicians with Kurdish support had her released and the criminal responsible prosecuted. As for the other two incidents (i.e. B and C) he clearly stated that they were cases of Assyrian Christian women eloping with and marrying Kurdish men. He even went on to give me an exanmple of another Assyrian woman that had fallen in love with a Kurd and had tried to elop with him. She'd gotten up early in the morning and attempted to secretly go to his village. Her brother and his friends had caught up with her and determined to save his family's honour he cold-bloodedly shot her through the heart and threw her body into a ravine. But I guess AINA were to busy to report on that incident..... --------------------- |
