ARK News: Mr. Mario Cattiker Head of the Department of Asylum in the Swiss Federal Government the distinguished:

We are the undersigned human rights organizations through your excellency, we extend to the government of your country the most sincere thanks and gratitude for the positive and sympathetic to our letter dated 1/11/2018, and to take a humanitarian decision to accept the request of the family of Kurds of Syria(Suleiman Abdo-Ibtisam Farhan-Sarhad Abdo-Selin Abdo) were held at Zurich airport with several other Kurdish families from Iraq and Turkey

We hope that your sympathy will include the rest of the families who have been detained at the airport since about two months and refrain from returning them to Turkey, as this poses a danger to their lives and granting them asylum in line with your laws and human values.

Thank you very much
