| Trafficked: Kurdistan’s trade in human lives |
| 2019-12-12 |
| [Rudaw] It was four in the morning in mid-September when Lydia* saw her opportunity to escape. She quietly let herself out of the Erbil house where she had been abused for the past month and fled, taking nothing but the clothes she was wearing. She had no shoes on her feet, spoke no Kurdish, and had only recently learned she was in Iraq and not ...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund... where she had been led to believe she would have a good job in a cleaning service. The sun had not yet risen when she was found in tears and huddled behind a car. The men who found her, guards for a guest house on the eastern edge of the city, brought her to local tribal leader Nawzad Anwar Betwata. |
