Two workers from Maxmur refugee camp in Iraqi Kurdistan, Mahîr Sêrtî and Eşref Korhan, were imprisoned by the Kurdistan Democratic Party’s (KDP) Asayish security organisation on 25 September whilst on their way to work.
They were released after 45 days after having given 200 dollars. They still do not know why they were detained but stated to Fırat News Agency (ANF): “We were subjected to all kinds of ill-treatment and we were kept in the same wards with ISIS members”.
