Kurdish lawyer abducted in Turkish-occupied Afrin

According to a source in Afrin, Kurdish lawyer Necah Omer Eros has been abducted by the Turkish intelligence service. The 52-year-old is from the village of Kûîra in Rajo district, and jihadists acting as “civilian police” are also said to have been involved in the kidnapping on October 23.

It is reported that the lawyer, who lives in Aleppo, was persuaded by the propaganda of the ENKS (Kurdish National Council) and returned to her village in Turkish-occupied Afrin. There she was abducted because she had allegedly previously worked in facilities of the Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria. Her current whereabouts and condition are unknown.

According to the Afrin human rights organization, 14 women and girls have been abducted in the occupied zone since the beginning of October. 32-year-old Nemat Bahjat Sheikho bled to death in a heavily pregnant state after suffering torture at the headquarters of the Turkish intelligence service MIT. She was arrested by the so-called “civil police” during a check-up at the hospital and transferred to the MIT.
