Eastern Kurdistan- Merywan: As the result of gun fire by the Iranian Military Forces on the group of Kurdish workers who work on the pseudo-borders of Eastern and Southern Kurdistan another Kurdish man was shot dead on Thursday in the regions of the Merywan city.
According to the reports on Thursday morning at 4am the vehicle of a group of Kurdish workers who were heading to the city of Merywan came under the gun down by the Iranian Military Forces. As the result of the fire attack a Kurdish worker named as Xebat Ahmedi was dead on the spot.
According to the statistics 63 Kurdish workers have been shot dead since the beginning of the 2009 and 43 have been wounded so far.
On the one hand the Iranian Regime forces Kurdish people into unemployment and consequent poverty, and on the other hand it will offer the jobs in mercenary positions. Those who refuse to undertake mercenary jobs are deemed to suffer poverty or forced to work as what the Iranian Regime calls smuggling.
“I refused to work in Military Corps, I refused to work in mercenary positions, I could not stand up taking up arms against my people, I could not stand up committing treason against my people, and thus I forcefully decided working on the borders to make the livings since I have 4 children. But the Iranian Military Forces label us as smugglers and they shoot us as soon as they spot us on the borders. I’d rather to be killed than to commit treason and take up arms against my people, Ako Mani a Kurdish worker said”
