Nine years, the fate of Amir Hamid remains unknown

Jan 11 2023

ARK News: Wednesday, January 11, 2023, marks the passing of the ninth anniversary of the kidnapping of the activist Amir Hamid, by the Democratic Union Party (PYD) militants in the city of Derbasiya, in Syrian Kurdistan.

Activist Amir Hamid was kidnapped on January 11, 2014, by an armed group affiliated with the Democratic Union Party (PYD) from his home in Derbasiya.

Hamid is one of the lists that the Kurdish National Council in Syria has handed over to the PYD administration to release them and reveal their fate, as a condition for rapprochement and unification of the Kurdish speech.

However, a statement issued by the Syrian Democratic Forces denied the PYD's responsibility for knowing eight of the kidnappers who are demanded by the National Council for their release. The statement claimed that their abduction took place before the PYD administration formed.
