Kirkuk Arab MPs call Iraqi Government to dismiss Asayish, Peshmerga forces from Kirkuk

Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) MPs of the Iraqiya Slate of Kirkuk province called on the Premier, Nouri al-Maliki and the Minister of Interior to urgently take action to remove the Asayish and Peshmega forces from Kirkuk, accusing these forces of preparing a genocide against the Arab component of Kirkuk province.

The MPs: Ibrahim al-Muhiri, Omar al-Jubouri, Abdullah al-Gharb, and Yassin al-Ubaidi, said in a joint statement “A force from Asayish threatened Al Wihda neighborhood through storming their houses then fired in air to delude the people of a clash being launched with gunmen, as soon as they knew about a woman eyewitness for their crime, the force returned and killed the woman to be added to a murder against three other youngmen.”

The statement added “The official security forces in the province were supposed to investigate this incident, but regrettably this crime was left without any attention by the Kirkuk police command.”

Kirkuk Arab MPs urged the Premier and the senior secretary of the Interior Ministry to launch investigations with command of Kirkuk police and emergency police commander to determine the reasons behind this crime.
