Daesh and Esedullah Team at work in Silopi
ŞIRNAK (DİHA) - A civilian in Silopi told that some persons introducing themselves as DAESH and Esedullah Team tortured and threatened them in a basement for two days.
As the state of siege has left 10 days behind in Şırnak's Silopi district, state forces have yet not managed to enter the areas of self-rule despite the ongoing and intensified attacks across the town. In other neighborhoods, a gang group called DAESH and Esedullah Team has been mobilized.
Civilian Veysel B. from Nuh neighborhood told that masked teams have demolished walls of their houses with a sledge hammer. The man said these people who introduced themselves as DAESH and Esedullah Team tortured him and his neighborhoods two days long.
‘We are Daesh and Esadullah Team'
Veysel B. said these masked people broke into their houses, locked him and his neighborhoods up in a basement and tortured them for hours. "They were chanting pro-ISIS slogans, saying 'We are DAESH and Esedullah teams, we will eradicate you all'. After the torture, they forced us to go up to the roof and make us a target for snipers. When we insisted on not doing so, they continued torturing us."
'Gangs terrorize people in Silopi'
The man told the followings as to the current situation in the town; "These gangs are terrorizing the people in Silopi. They kind of see red. They are doing anything possible to evacuate the houses. They have battered hundreds of people and forcibly taken them to nearby villages. Someone must hear our scream now. We have no security of life at all. Silopi is occupied by gangs and hired murderers. Silopi faces a genocide."
