Soran Solidarity Freedom Campaign
Statement by Kirkuk Experimental Theatre Group
Fryad Ahmad threatened with death
Kurdishaspect.com - Translated by Dr Kamal Mirawdeli
The threat of terror against the known voices of Kirkuk is increasing by day. After the murder of Soran Mama Hama, the close friend and supporter of our group in front of his own home, both writers Nihad Jami and Kosrat Abdulrahman have been threatened with death several times. This time a member of our team has become the victim of terrorist threat of death. Fryad Ahmad has been threatened with death from several mobile phone numbers. Ahmad is on the editorial board of Shanokar magazine and member of the management committee of the Experimental Theatre Group. He also presents a programme in Kirkuk Azadi TV.
We see this threat is not just against our colleagues but in fact it is a threat to all the known and prominent voices in Kirkuk. We the people of Kirkuk today need a different country in which there are no frightening hands of murder. We need to create a small Kirkuk outside the control of political parties which we would call ôKirkuk of writers and artists.¤
What a farce we are witnessing today. Fryad, Nihad and Kosrat are threatened with death. We are certain tomorrow more of our names would be included. We understand there is a murderous hand against friendship and beauty in our city. Our only request to our friends is: take care until we will meet again in the project of experimental theatre. In the place of their threats and bullets we will create a new theatrical experience in Kirkuk.
