1 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Preface The damages and crimes endured by Iraqis due to human rights violations in 2015 aren’t so different from the ones in 2014, the only minor difference is that the only thing that makes those less dangerous is the basic support and aid offered for the IDPs, but quite a minor support in general which doesn’t cover the basic needs. In general, due to a monitoring process by Hammurabi Human Rights Organization, we can confirm the following: 1st: crimes, such as (Murder, Captivity, Sexual Slavery, Genocide, imprisonment, torture, coercion in religious conversion, vandalism of personal property and religious and historical monuments, abduction, demographical change) have continued on the same level as in 2014, which represents a Genocide according to international standards. 2nd: human rights violations took place in all Iraqi territories in general, but have been most egregious against minorities. Completing the steps of transitional justice, the perpetrators and the ones offering support must not get away without punishment, because it is a moral and a national responsibility which should not be underestimated by any means. 3rd: the heinous human rights violations being committed by the Islamic State, terrorist groups and outlaws with the absent role of the government have taken the attention away from other violations such as domestic violence, homelessness, deteriorating financial crisis, declining job opportunities, lack of services (municipality, electricity, water, healthcare, education, social and economic). 4th: 2015 didn’t witness any positive developments in regards to confronting such violations, while noticing the absence of any procedures that could limit corruption and administrative idleness in governmental institutions despite many promises by the government to respond firmly to such issues, where the Iraqi citizens pay the price, for instance, what is called the unified retirement law which instead of doing justice to employees and retirees and respect their rights, people who’ve been receiving their salaries according to laws undertaken years ago, now, a number of former ministers have been deprived of their retirement rights, their salaries have been decreased to levels which makes them unable to provide proper living for their families. 5th: security and political conditions remain the same, the larger blocks continue to control decisions in the Iraqi state, while the disagreement between the regional and the central government continues. The political situation in the KRG have suffered from bickering and disagreements between the different political blocks, this didn’t allow to continue working according to moral and political responsibilities to confront such violations, but it was the other way around, since the beginning of the Islamic State’s aggression against the Nineveh plain, where the majority of residents were Christians and others were Iraqi minorities, the actions taken towards them were far from any standard security scales in the world, instead of providing security for the innocent citizens and encouraging them to effectively

2 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report participate in defending themselves, they were forced to give up their personal weapons, depriving them from the right to defend themselves and their families, and then leaving them alone, taking the irresponsible decision to withdraw, exposing women and children to acts of Genocide, losing the trust of the Christians in the Nineveh plain and the Yazidies in and other minorities such as Shabak, Turkmen, Kaka’is and others, which exposed Christians of Mosul, Yazidies of Sinjar and other minorities to the deliberate targeting by the Islamic State militants.

6th: HHRO didn’t find any fast or important responses from the government and the other authorities in the Iraqi state in order to alleviate the suffering of the minorities especially in regards to the issue of the confiscated houses in and Mosul, although the supreme judicial council have promised HHRO to have a judicial decision to restore those unlawfully taken houses and property, but we should mention the positive decision taken by the general real estate administration in the ministry of finances of the federal government to stop all transactions related to selling properties of Christians through agents and considering everything that have been sold that way illegal thus such forged transactions which occurred in the past wouldn’t be accepted.

3 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

7th: the continuous human rights violations in Iraq have raised hopelessness and frustration among the majority of Iraqis, but what happened to the Iraqi minorities is the worst, such issues have been suffered by thousands of young men from societies of minorities and internally displaced families encouraging them to emigrate heading to nearby countries and especially Turkey where more than 35.000 Iraqi Christian and 20.000 Yazidi are suffering from many tragedies, few of them have had continues troubles while trying to reach European countries through the sea, a number of Iraqis have drowned trying to get to Europe after being forced to go through the dangerous trip through the sea hoping to have a better life, after being a prey for human trafficking, smuggling and sexual assault mafias.

In 2015, we have seen the rise of different institutions providing programs to help Iraqis emigrate and securing an access to certain countries Iraqi want to emigrate to, but later on, we realized that few of those institutions and agencies ended up revealing their true identity of fraud, blackmail, human trafficking …

8th:Hammurabi Human Rights Organization have recorded a financial human rights violation represented by Iraqi governmental bank’s dereliction (Alrafidain & Alrasheed) when responding to demands by the displaced from the Nineveh plain, these banks have ignored demands by those Iraqi citizens to withdraw money from their accounts in the banks, despite their repeated requests and need for the money which demands accelerating the process to provide them with the money they need to cover their financial shortage. HHRO sees that such persistence by governmental banks while ignoring the legal demands represents a human rights violation according to the relationship between the citizen and financial institutions putting into consideration that the deposits should not be manipulated in any way on the expense of its owner’s rights.

Violations and Crimes against Minorities

1st: Christians The presence of Christians in different fields in Iraq wasn’t even comparable to Christians’ role in countries in the middle east, either culturally, socially, economically and even politically, despite the continues discrimination against them and the numerous setbacks they had to endure in their political and civil capabilities to defend their existence. In the seventies and the eighties, Chaldean, Syriac, Armenian, Assyrian, Evangelical and other Christians represented 10% of the Iraqi society, pre 2003, they numbered more than 1.5 million people. This number eerily declined to less than 500.000 people due to the continues acts of oppression and deliberate targeting of Christians in addition to the effect of unfair laws

Which affect their religious freedom and separated families, such as Article 21 / Paragraph 3 of the civil status law which has been transformed into Article 26 of the national card law, which states that minors will be converted to Islam in case one of the parents converts, in addition to other unfair laws and the deliberate mass or individual murder which continues to happen against Christians in Baghdad, Mosul, and other areas, more than 880 cases of barbaric murders have been recorded by Hammurabi Human Rights Organization

5 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report until the year of 2015

One of the heinous crimes of Islamic State militants in Mosul, unforgettable crimes crushing Christian childhood.

Such crimes aren’t being punished effectively by the state which have proven its inability to protect innocents, until we reached a level of Genocide again, Genocide perpetrated by IS militants who have no mercy, neither to humans nor to rocks .. hundreds of women, men and families are still prisoned in Mosul and the Nineveh plain, being raped, robbed, forced to convert to Islam or “Pay the Jizya while submitted” waiting for conversion, or to leave the country after being stripped from everything they had, where what they had becomespoils of war for IS militants.

While living as IDPS in camps and social floors, those natives are proving their insistence to clung to the land of their ancestors, while having nothing of it left for them, moreover being considered as refugees in their own country, living in camps, caravans …

Moreover, security forces stated that they’ve arrested the taxi driver whose car was used to kidnap the girl who denied knowing the names of the kidnapers adding that they hired him while being on the road.

church in Baghdad on 31/10/2010, the family have received a threat stating that they have to leave in 48 hours from their house in , forcing them to flee towards Erbil and then Turkey… the family have lost everything and depend on the basic and hardly enough donations they receive.

2nd: Yazidies

Yazidi Iraqis were more than half a million people pre 2003 in Iraq, but this number continued to decline due to what they’ve suffered from forced displacement, captivity, mass murder … a number of them had to relocate within the country, others tried to apply for asylum in neighboring countries, many were killed, kidnapped or what happened to them remains unknown to this day, few remain in captivity – especially women, living in slavery and suffering from sexual violence in an ongoing Genocide.

 On 01/12/2015, Khairi Ali Ibrahim: an activist and a member of the Yazidi Organization for Documenting, was arrested and prosecuted because he posted on his personal Yazidi page wondering how 15 people could live in one Caravan, he was fined with 2 million dinars. Members of Asayish have arrested the mentioned activist on 05/04/2015 after he published images of the manager of Alqadiya IDPs camp, talking about corruption taking place when distributing the Caravans by the manager, he was then transferred to Sumel Asayish center, during the same evening, the Asayish have also arrested the leader of the Yazidi resistance Haidar Shasho in his house in Khanik village, HHRO was informed that he was then released after few third-party interventions, Yazidi activists claim that he had to sign a pledge not to undertake any military actions against the Islamic State without the supervision of the Peshmerga’s administration.  HHRO was informed by trusted sources on 07/09/2015 that 18 Yazidies arrived to the Turkish city of Gaziantep coming from the Syrian city of Raqqa which is controlled by the Islamic State, the majority were women and children there is still no information if there was a certain deal to release these Yazidies or if they’ve escaped from one of the detentions or prisons of Daesh in Raqqa. HHRO continues to try to get additional information about these Iraqi citizens, HHRO haven’t found anything yet.  HHRO was informed by Yazidi sources that the Asayish in Zakho arrested the Yazidi activist called Shamo Murad Bakr who is 29 years old, and that’s while he was crossing through the checkpoint at Ibrahim Khalil border line, Shamo is an IDP and he moves back and forward between IDP camps in Turkey and the one in Zakho, HHRO doesn’t have any additional information about what happened to him until this moment.  A Yazidi citizen called Dhar Fandi Ahmad Alqirani was killed in Zummar bridge area on the way between Sinjar and Dookri within Tell Kasab complex, according to the story told to HHRO, he was on his way to Bajid Kendala camp where he lives with his family and he was cut off by two cars whose passengers stabbed him 3 times in

9 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

the chest and fled the area. He was then transferred to the medical center in Dayrabun near Zakho but the provided aid wasn’t enough to save his live.  Violent and sectarian statements by a Muslim cleric called Abd Allatief Ahmad provoked objectionable and condemning reactions by Yazidies, his comments which included a tendency to incite killing Yazidies accusing them of being infidel, whose killing is justified even if they announce their conversion to Islam. Yazidies see that the vocabulary used by the Kurdish Muslim Cleric were very offensive and violent comparing it to the dark Fatwas of the Islamic State, the Muslim Cleric while responding to a question “who doesn’t say There is no god but God. Muhammad is the messenger of God is infidel” adding that the prophet of Yazidies is the devil and it’s not permissible to call a non-Muslim “brother”, because he is an infidel, adding that anyone who isn’t a Muslim in what he says is an infidel. Confirming numerous times that the Gospel and the Torah are distorted.  According to Yazidi activists, there have been a peaceful sit-in in Zakho on 15/07/2015 by Yazidi IDPs from Sinjar in protest against the deteriorating services and the treatment they receive by the camp’s administration which doesn’t respect their human rights, where electricity and water goes off for about 6 to 10 hours a day, and sometimes twice the same day, in addition to leaving the garbage for long periods of time exceeding 10 days.  On 10/05/2015, the Yazidi citizen Mosa Khodr Tammo (born 1995), was killed while being in Talon Security company in where he used to work as a guard, it seems like the perpetrators used rocks to kill him and then shot him using a gun, it also seems like the perpetrators have entered through the company’s door because its protected by barbed wires. According to information received by HHRO, the victim was an IDP from Seba Shekhadri from Sinjar which has been occupied by the Islamic State. We were assured by our monitorsthat the victim was planning to quit his job at the company due to a series of harassments, his life was ended by the actions of a number of employees at the companies represented by sectarianism and heinous atrocities, according to other information, he was killed after describing the members of the Islamic State as criminals and that’s in front of a number of the company’s employees few days before the murder. After keeping up with this case we were assured that the authorities in Sulaymaniyah have arrested a number of suspects …  On Monday 04/05/2015, Ms. Amal Hussien who was 22 years old from Rambosy village in Sinjar committed suicide. She graduated from the institute of nursing past year and became a nurse at Sharia hospital.

HHRO was informed that there’s a clear corruption in the administration of the aid which reaches the camp and which distributed the received aid according to political allegiances or friendships.

10 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

 On 27/04/2015, IS affiliated groups divided people in Tell Afar into two groups: men and young boys aging 12 and above into one group and women and younger boys into another group, HHRO was informed that about 150 people were killed in Alhuda mosque in addition to other men being killed nearby the city’s electricity station, the same sources claimed that a groups of people were killed in Tell Antar valley and another group was killed near Alfarooq mosque.  Yazidi activists said while talking to HHRO that members of the Asayish have assaulted Yazidi protesters using sticks and cables, the protesters left their camps in the evening at 3 pm on Thursday 23/03/2015, those Asayish members have aggressively assaulted them, hundreds were arrested and transferred to the Asayish departments in Zakho, sources confirmed that there were orders by Zakho Asayish not to allow anyone to exit or enter those IDP camps such as Jameshko camp, this order included the sick ones as well. It is worth mentioning that the protests in Zakho, Shekhan and Akra started in conjunction with other protests in Belgium’s capital Brussels in front of the European Union Headquarter demanding the liberation of their lands from the grip of the Islamic State and declaring what happened to them a Genocide.  On 23/02/2015, the Asayish have punished the students of Ashti middle school for IDPs in by banning them from attending school for 3 days, that’s due to altercations between the Arab and the Kurdish students as a result to a conflict while playing football.  Monday 23/11/2015, protests in Duhok broke out, led by Kurdish extremists against Yazidies, where a group of Kurdish extremists held protests calling the Kurdish state in the Kurdish region to protect Muslim Kurds living in Sinjar after liberating the city, accusing Yazidies of holding revenge operations against them. HHRO expresses its concern and wonders why there are no deterrents by the local authority to such protests raising sectarian Islamic slogans against Yazidies and accusing them of burning houses, mosques and killing Muslim Kurds after all what the Yazidies have been through from heinous violations, killing, displacement, captivity and Genocide, all this committed by the Islamic State after the occupation of Sinjar, Mosul and the Nineveh plain. Violence against Yazidies continues not only in their territories but also in the capital, Baghdad, where 5 workers were killed and 7 injured by unknown armed men who attacked liquor stores in Allawi neighborhood and Bab Alazem in the middle of Baghdad, putting into consideration that this business is the main income for a group of indigenous components of Iraq that never stopped being the victim for this sort of brutality.

4th: Faili Kurds

Thousands of Fili Kurds continue suffering in harsh camps in , such as the camps of Zana, Zaiwa, Jahroom and Qm, the camp of Jahroom contains 1871 people who were forced to relocate by the previous dictatorial regime, they had to leave Baghdad and other areas where they lived and go to Iran. There conditions deteriorated in those camps on Iranian lands. Their supplied with their needs of food but can’t leave the village where their camp is because they became “without” appatride, which means without citizenship because they didn’t receive the cancelled documents after the Genocide they endured in the eighties and nighties. And after numerous efforts and insistence by high profile personnel from this component

13 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Laws and Resolutions In the ministry of interior, the parliament and the Iraqi judiciary, the law of restoring the Iraqi citizenship was implemented under what is called “citizenship granting” and not restoration indicating that they are considered as any foreigner who earns an Iraqi citizenship, and not from father to son for more than a generation since their grandfathers acquired the Iraqi nationality in Iraq by naturalization. Regardless of the fact that the Fili Kurdish Iraqi component was forced to leave and the methods used to achieve that were extremely brutal such as killing, abduction, assault … they were officially deprived from obtaining an Iraqi nationality and legally considered as related to Iran thus their properties and belongings weren’t protected but confiscated. It is worth mentioning that the president of HHRO, Ms. Pascale Warda while being the minister of migration and displacement in 2004-2005, has taken the initiative to put the ministry of interior to its national responsibility demanding to stop working according to the unfair laws inherited by the former dictatorial regimes based on the prime ministry’s resolutions at that time in order to eliminate injustice and restore the basic rights of Iraqis which is represented by their right to obtain the Iraqi nationality … but the answers to such demands are still conditioned by having a radical change on the judicial and executive scale and that’s not only to give back the confiscated money and properties to its owners but to try to eliminate the accumulated complexities due to such laws which are issued due to the will of certain people in most cases .. having a solution to such legal complications represents an important part of the transitional justice. HHRO have witnessed that no schools or educational centers were opened in Fili’s camps since the eighties thus thousands of children and men are illiterate. This thing represents a continues violation of the right of a humanitarian group of Iraqis, thus HHRO is calling for the Iraqi government and especially the ministry of migration and displacement to carry out their responsibility and work to end this misery, similar to what the Iraqi government did to Rafah camp in Saudi Arabia. The source of this comparison is what one of the Fili activists … Due to their low educational level, which is how the majority of them are, they had to occupy simple jobs that doesn’t provide a decent living which made them live in harsh economic conditions, also unemployment is rampant among their youths.

14 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

 Fili Kurdish women testified that women within this Iraqi component suffer from persecution and injustice. On the international day for refugees which is celebrated by the United Nation on 20/06 each year, the supreme national front for Fili Kurds released a statement pointing to the continuity of many violations against this Iraqi component, most of these violations are inherited from the former regime through unfair laws targeting their existence and belongings and causing the displacement of more than half a million Iraqi Fili and their emigration and the forced disappearance of more than 23 thousand Fili youth, confiscating their properties and human rights, while conducting biological, chemical and laboratorial experiments on their detainees, HHRO has information confirming that there are few issues concerning the rights of Iraqi Fili Kurds that can’t be solved because it requires to amend or cancel laws and legislations issued during the former regime of Sadam, Fili Iraqis call to consider what happened to them a Genocide, especially after declaring that Genocide by the Supreme Iraqi Criminal Court on 29/11/2010, and the appeals court has ratified this resolution, moreover, the supreme national front for Fili Kurds has renewed its demand to join the Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees, the Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons, the Convention on the Nationality of Married Women and the Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees. HHRO was informed by Fili activists that there is obvious weakness and procrastination in the governmental departments when it comes to responding to the demands of the Fili Iraqis in regards to properties and nationality. 5th: Shabak This Iraqi component has been suffering from assaults, displacement and murder by the Islamic State invaders and the rampant terrorism in the territories of the Nineveh plain and Mosul, since 2005, and because the vast majority of Shabak are Shia, considered as people who abandoned Islam and called “Rafidah1” by the criminals of the Islamic State … they were displaced which cleansed 55 Shabaki villages from its residents in Nineveh province, about 200 thousand Shabaki were forced to relocate, they went to ’, and other cities in southern Iraq.

 Saturday morning 11 May 2015, an armed group attacked a number of trucks transferring goods in Diala province, one of the drivers was kidnapped, he is a Shabak called Abd Allah Hussien who is from the residents of Almowafaqiya village in the Nineveh plain, a day after his abduction his dead body was found in one of the areas in Almaqdadiya.  HHRO continued monitoring Shabak conditions after the invasion of the Islamic State of the Nineveh province, it turned out that dozens of them were executed by terrorists after being stripped from their belongings which forced many of them to flee to areas southern Iraq. 6th: Mandaean Sabians

1meaning "rejectors", "those who reject" or "those who refuse".

15 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Despite the obvious decline of the number of Iraqi Mandaean Sabians, which was estimated by 50 thousand people pre 2003, and then dropped down to 10 thousand by 2014, today they number about only 6 thousand people due to the increasing emigration after the continues attacks against them in Baghdad and the south as well.

 HHRO noticed while monitoring their conditions the following cases: The abduction of the Mandaean Iraqi called Mothafar Aziz In the Kayara neighborhood / Alsader city on Friday 10/07/2015, the kidnappers called his parents asking for a big ransom in exchange for his life, after negotiations the ransom was set at 200 thousand dollars, his parents had to collect the money in a hurry, because the kidnapers have chosen a method to get the ransom and release him at the same time, which happened on 13/07/2015, and according to the plan set by the kidnapers. It is worth mentioning that Mothafar works as a goldsmith, and owns a store in Alkayara market.  (A, KH) who works as a goldsmith in Baghdad, received a blackmailing message through the phone asking him to pay 2500 dollars or he will have an accident that will lead to his death, so he had to sell his shop cheaply and move to other provinces … HHRO’s team which was responsible to monitor this violation keeps trusted information on that front.  An unknown armed group attacked the young man Wasfi Abd Alghani who works as a goldsmith in Misan province, he was shot and killed and all the jewelry was stolen, this happened during daylight but the incident was recorded against an anonymous.  A group of local youths broken into the house of Abd Alkareem Alnashi at midnight, knowing that he is a Mandaean aging 70 years old, lives in Alturath neighborhood in Baghdad with his only daughter who is 32 years old, trying to rape the girl regardless of her being mentally disturbed, but they weren’t successful, because Abd Alkareem informed the police which led to the arrest of one of the youths after being recognized by Abd Alkareem, after that a group of armed youths attacked him while being in his home, beating him severely and forcing him to leave.  Hussam Naji Sawadi, in his twenties, working as a goldsmith in Misan city, he was convinced by his friend to buy a package of golden jewelry so he took an amount of money with him while going with his friend, the parents knew that their son was going with his trusted friend to make a deal, the next day the parents were told that their son is kidnapped and that they must pay 40 thousand dollars as a ransom, the ransom was paid but with no result, their son wasn’t released and after 2 months his dead body was found at the Iraqi-Iranian borders, and according to the coroner, he was killed at the same day he left with his friends, according to the parents, his friend is the one who killed him and the killer is still free.  Two young Mandaean men were kidnaped at the main road to Khales city, the kidnappers led them to an unknown destination and then called their parents asking for a ransom of 250 thousand dollars for each, after paying the ransom they were released and the accident was recorded against an anonymous.  One of the monitoring volunteers providing information to HHRO about a number of Mandaean citizens who works as goldsmiths in few neighborhoods in Baghdad such

16 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

as Alshorta neighborhood, these citizens were being blackmailed and threatened into paying amounts of money in exchange for security by people claiming to be members of armed militias, we’ll continue to be looking into this to have further information.  Many Mandaean Iraqis have left Alshorta neighborhood in Baghdad, there used to be 14 goldsmiths but now only 7 remain as a result to continues threats. 7th: Baha’is

 The biggest challenge to Iraqi Baha’is is the legal barrier to their religious freedom and the recognition of their religious freedom, because they still suffer from Law No. 105 which criminalize Baha’I activity, which was issued in 1970,

Law No. 105  In addition to resolutions issued against them in 1975 to freeze their civil status qualifications. And despite that the Iraqi ministry of interior have removed the freezing notice in 2007 by eliminating that ban that was issued in 1975, but the Baha’is are facing indecisiveness in regards to their personal status. Thus their numbers remain unknown in Iraq because they find difficulties registering their children at schools. Statistics indicated that they number less than 100 people whereas in fact their number is higher than that. Because Iraq is going through a democratic course through a constitution that wants to respect religious freedom in an obvious manner, and because Iraqi Baha’is haven’t taken their properties back which were confiscated by the former dictatorial regime, HHRO sees the importance of issuing a legal text that would cancel the mentioned law above and thus officially recognizing this religion which isn’t the only one on a land that was a cradle for religious diversity despite the challenges confronted by minority religious groups due to sectarian acts which threaten Iraqis from time to time targeting their religious rights as is the case currently after the Islamic State occupation. In general, Iraq needs real amendments and changes which requires training to accept the principals of democracy which could be used to protect one’s rights using legal methods that are legislated to respect one’s rights and not to target them. HHRO considers a number of laws as injustice and cruel especially ones about minorities and about women. We shouldn’t be a museum for legal texts written since the days of Hammurabi and most of them aren’t cancelled yet despite the injustice it provides such as law 105 for the year of 70 and the mentioned law above and civil status law

17 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

for 1965 amended in 1972 article 21 paragraph 3 which was transformed into article 26 of the national identity law which was voted by the parliament concerning converting minors to Islam in case one of the parents converts to Islam, which is a flagrant violation of the rights of children and families. 8th: Black people Among the numerous minorities in Iraq are colored people who suffers from continues violations due to racism as a result to their dark skin color … they are based in Albasra province southern Iraq, and number to about 200 thousand people, they face many challenges and have being executed, kidnapped and went through social racial discrimination.

 On 07/06/2015, Abd Allah Matar was shot killed after being led to Abo Khusieb area in his car where he was killed, the murder was recorded against an anonymous. one of HHRO’s monitoring volunteers have informed HHRO of the following information:  On 06/06/2015, Kathem Abd Aljeel was killed, he is of the residents of Alzebier district and was stabbed to death, according to the latest information, 4 suspects were arrested and the investigation is ongoing.  On 06/03/2015, Marwan Majed Alshawi was killed in Abo Khusieb district, and the murder was recorded against an anonymous, according to criminal indicators he was shot killed. Christian and Yazidi survivors from the grip of Daesh talking about the Genocide represented by what they’ve went through from heinous captivity and rape

(Field records by Hammurabi Human Rights Organization HHRO of what survivors shared) The violations committed against the survivors from the grip of Daesh are considered among the worst violations because they were accompanied by numerous threats, murder, rape, torture, stripping people from all their belongings and valuables and other destructive and terrorist crimes. These crimes have reached especially Yazidies and Christians, while we in HHRO are keen to record and document more violations to present them to the Iraqi and international public opinion, if it is documented according to what survivors said then it represents documentations according to all special standards, and all stories recorded by our organization is on a level of credibility where we tried to avoid documenting anything without having information from trusted sources. Ms. Pascale Warda, president of HHRO, have led numerous teams, to accomplish the task of meeting dozens of those survivors (men & women), and we are interesting in presenting parts of those stories to the public after substituting the names of the victims by characters

18 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report for security necessities to protect those who remain in captivity, below are few of these stories. We all recognize that the violations which women have suffered from are characterized by continuous enormity because it represents a continuing Genocide harming Iraq’s sovereignty by overtaking its borders and invading not less than the third of its space while displacing Christianity and Yezidism, killing and exterminating hundreds of them, confiscating their properties, taking everything they were carrying, calling them infidel, forcing them to change their religion, exposing them to the harsh lifestyle of camps where they had only the hopeof leaving Iraq after enslaving its nation in Mosul, the Nineveh Plain, Anbar and other areas, in addition to the captivity which Iraqi women have been subjected to, witnessing the worst type of sexual violence by kidnapping, raping and killing, starting by girls aging 3 years old such as Kristina and then girls aging 10 – 12 years such as Yazidies, and ending with young Christian and Yazidi girls and married women, in addition to few Muslims in Mosul and within universities and schools where young students are being raped. A –A list of Christian survivors (men & women): Survivor (K, M, A), born April/09/1984 in Mosul, Chaldean Christian, captivating and suffered the worst types of crimes against humanity and sexual enslavement because she is a Christian and she has a cross tattooed on her hand. She was arrested by Daesh late Sep/2014, in their headquarter in Alyarmouk in Mosul when she was trying to ask for her husband (A) who hasn’treturned home for more than 3 months wishing to meet him while prisoned in one of IS headquarters .. after they heard that her husband was a guard, they told her that her husband was a traitor, tied her hands, then started questioning her about her husband and her parents and whether she has children, she kept denying having any children or parents .. and after they’ve removed the vail from her face they started praising her beauty, beating her, insulting her, and talking to her in an unmoral manner, and when they found the cross tattoo on her hand they starting to give her additional attention, they accused her of coming to the police center to blow herself saying (how do you remain here and you’re a Nazarane? Where are your parents? They’re surely in Mosul), after a night of unmoral treatment in detention where she was beaten, insulted, calling her “a masterpiece” by the bearded investigator and a number of hardhearted men, after removing her Khimar2, everyone started touching her from his side, assaulting her, while fear was crawling into her heart, she was crying and calling for salvation. They tied her hands after they didn’t get the information about her husband and parents. Also the cross tattoo on her left hand was an evidence that she is a Christian which doubled their grudge. After untying her swollen hands due to the pressure of the ropes, one of Daesh officials said to put her with the captives, that’s her fate .. with hundreds of Yazidi captives, she met

2a head cover that covers the hair low to the forehead, comes under the chin to conceal the neck, and falls down over the chest and back which females are forced to wear in the Islamic State.

19 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report captive (K), another Christian captive called (A) who have also suffered the worst kinds of sexual violence, she was called Mama by (K, M, A) because she was 60 years old, and giving her last breaths in her lap while living among captives .. while being in captivity she was beaten and violently tortured, HHRO have document the marks that remain on her body, because they pushed her downstairs, pulled her from her yellow colored hair, putting her on the floor in a room where she met another Yazidi girl on the other side of the room, and two men wearing an Indian? Afghani? Pakistani? costume entered each room and violently raping her and the Yazidi girl at the same time and in the same room, in ways that are far from even being described by animalistic, according to what she said (K, M, A) explained that in one night 8 people have violently assaulted her, and they were calling this violence “marriage” because she was being married to each man waiting in the queue to continue the violence, savage rape. She kept living like this for 2 months, until she was found by her neighbor who joined the Islamic State, and he managed to get her out of captivity through paying large amounts of money, 4 million and gold in addition to other 2 and a half million Iraqi dinar, which was the cost for her escape.

(one of the testimonies of a Christian woman after being liberate of enslavement by Daesh) She was smuggled out of captivity while she was being taken with other captives to be taken to Slave Markets to be sold to Saudi Arabia, on the way there was an arrangement by Ahmed (the son of her neighbor Ms. (N)) who convinced her to marry Omar without the knowledge of her parents, also Ahmed helped her to run away to Duhok after she wasn’t allowed to pass through Erbil checkpoint where her 2 million dinars gold was stolen by one of the Peshmerga. Two Yazidi girls have confirmed that there were in Mosul then Tel Afar, where they were living as captives, two Christian girls, one of them called (M) 20 years old and the other (M, A) only 15 years old, they were raped and tortured for continuing to refuse to give up for the evil will of Daesh, and refusing to convert to Islam and praying the prayer of Daesh, and holding into their Christianity. Unfortunately, the two sisters continue living in agony, witnessing physical and psychological brutality, HHRO considers not taking the responsibility to liberate these Christian and Yazidi girls and women a type of direct participation in the violations which continue to be committed until this moment using the worst inhumane methods. And it’s unfortunate that most of these criminals are Iraqis and they rape the Iraqi girls after being raped by foreigners such as Afghans, Chechens and others.

But when Baker got busy with other things are gave the responsibly to Haji Mahdi, that’s when things got better and Magdi agreed to allow me to reunite with my family in Kirkuk after my mother’s request and begging.

Acts of Genocide through vandalism and destruction of houses, religious temples and even minorities’ cemeteries

War crimes and crimes against humanity suffered by Iraq and Iraqis doesn’t represent crimes and violations as understood internationally but acts of Genocide can’t be even compared to anything alike in the world. The violence didn’t affect only humans but also heritage … and the most dangerous aspect of such scenes that it became something that’s is done in many places and with an ISIS spirit, even in places that aren’t controlled by ISIS!

Images of the destruction in Sinjar after the liberation

1) On 28/12/2015, an armed group destroyed, vandalized and violated the sanctity of Christian cemeteries in Kirkuk, the perpetrators were seen by visitors of the cemetery and they fled the area after completing their mission. 2) On 19/03/2015, 4 Shabak Shia mosques were bombed by the Islamic State in Qaraqosh, these 3 were destroyed in Almanara village (Imam Ali, Alzahra, Alsadrien), and the Major Zainab in Bashbita village. 3) On 19/03/2015, IS terrorists bombed the archeological monastery of Aljub, which goes back to the 7th century and built within the fence of the monastery of the martyrs Behnam and Sarah in sub-district which was one of the historical Christian landmarks. 4) On 02/03/2015, IS terrorists shoveled through a Christian cemetery which goes back to 1900, which is built on a historical hill in Tell Kief district.

5) The destruction of the Assyrian Nimrud relics in Mosul by IS terrorists during the first week of March, these relics goes back to the Assyrian era, putting into consideration that Nimrud was one of the capitals of the Assyrian empire, it is worth mentioning that the Islamic State have destroyed relics in the museum of Mosul a week ago. 6) The Islamic State continued its crimes by removing crossing from Churches in Mosul and transforming them into mosques, such as the of Altahira which is situated in Alshifa neighborhood in Mosul, historians indicate that Altahira church is an ancient and historical church and its establishment date is unknown, it is situated in the western side of Mosul and in Bab Alamadi area, which is relatively small. 7) The Islamic State have violated all moral standards by using the furniture of churches such as the wooden benches and distributing those in public spaces and checkpoints in the streets of Mosul. 8) IS have attacked Yazidi shrines and bombed many during the first 6 months of 2015, and according to HHRO’s monitoring, we managed to confirm: 9) Bombing Nasreddin shrine and Alsaed shrine in February in Ba’shiqa. 10) Destroying the shrine of Baba Yadgar Alkaka’i in Tell Laban area. 11) Destroying the shrine of Baba Haidar Alkaka’i in Kazhakan. 12) Vandalizing the cemetery of Saeed Ahmad Abo Yaser in Wardak village, which is a Kaka’i cemetery situated by (Zab and Khazer river crossing point on a high mountainous top). 13) Destroying the following Kaka’i shrines:  the shrine of Shah Hias / Wardak village  the shrine of Baba Haidar / Kazkan village  the shrine of Baba Dakkar / Tell Laban village  the shrine of Bierd Sana Wr / Wardak village  Shah Jawarmalakay Hias shrine / Wardak village  IS affiliated terrorists have destroy Mar Behnam and Sarah (his sister) monastery in Nimrud sub-district in Qaraqosh district when Iraqi Christians were celebrating the anniversary of the ascendance of Mary, the terrorists published images of the destruction process, proving their disrespect to anything original and ancient in the Iraqi history.

Samples of human rights violations in different areas in Mosul

 HHRO received messages from six male citizens and one female citizen asking for help, most of them are displaced who didn’t have anywhere to go and you’ll find samples of the texts of their messages.  One of them is asking for money to pay for the treatment of his son who was exposed to radiation due to American military operations.  The female citizen is asking for HHRO’s help because her husband is a hostage in one of the Islamic State’s prisons and she is an IDP currently in Erbil, she describes the conditions of her family by being very poor.

48 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

 Another citizen is asking for money because he is an IDP and lives in a rented house where he has to pay 600 thousand dinars monthly.  HHRO received a message from an IDP living in Sulaymaniyah currently with his 4 family members and he has got nothing to live with.  One of the other painful messages received by HHRO was a message from an IDP saying that he is responsible for 5 displaced families and they all live in one house, he asked the team of HHRO to visit them.  Abo Fahd (an IDP) sent a message to HHRO stating that he is an IDP from Anbar and have filled the 1 million dinars grant document a year ago, which is an Iraqi governmental grant to all IDPs and is given only once, but his name didn’t appear in the list of citizens by the ministry of migration and displacement to be granted the money.  Another citizen said in a message to HHRO’s projects management team that he has a 3 years old child suffering from a heart condition and is asking HHRO to guide him to humanitarian organizations or good people who might be able to help him financially to have the necessary surgeries for his daughter, we’ll keep the names anonymous for security reasons.  HHRO received many complaints from dozens of Iraqi families stating that their children have gone missing in Baghdad and Salah Aldien and they couldn’t find out what happened to them until now, few of these families claim that armed groups have captured their sons, moreover, HHRO have discussed this issue with human rights and governmental authorities to find out what happened to these Iraqis, it is worth mentioning that HHRO have provided a number of names of such cases to these authorities.  HHRO have received complaints from Iraqis stating that their houses have been bombed and destroyed by armed groups in Jurf Sakhar and Alexandria in Babil province, and in Salah Al-Din province. This means that the governmental authorities must take the required security procedures to secure these families and put an end to vandalism. The residents of Mosul are suffering from many oppressive procedures by the Islamic State gangs, such as banning them from moving to and from other Iraqi cities, HHRO received information about the conditions for one to leave the city, you’d need a sponsor to leave and a property of a car to be mortgaged as a guarantee, also the travel duration will be limited, the mortgaged house or car will be confiscated if the time limit is passed, another conditions is that if a sick person is leaving only one of his relatives is allowed to accompany him and no more than that, also females under 55 years old aren’t allowed to leave and above that are allowed to leave to continued their retirement papers and for other important reasons. Other very sad information which HHRO received is that female students in Mosul are being raped and threatened of being killed within the campus and in schools as well, this started late 2015 … more than 65 female student and a number of them committed suicide as a result to being raped by the barbaric gangs of the Islamic State …

49 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

HHRO have witnessed that there are violations based on discrimination and differentiation in regards to employment, social status and other affairs, this represents a clear aspect of marginalization and exclusion with no rightful basis, which is leading to the understanding that this time of racist discrimination is based on religious, sectarian, political or sexual differences which is one of the rampant policies in many Iraqi administrative channels regardless of what is being promoted officially about equality … expertise from females and minority communities are the ones affected the most. HHRO listened to many testimonies in Baghdad about Christian expertise including females who deserve to be in higher positions according to their many years of continues work. But despite that they are being marginalized and fought, thus many preferred to leave their jobs and ask for early retirement instead of submitting to someone given the position of a manger or advisor or deputy without having the qualifications or the rights to occupy that position. This is the case in many ministries and other governmental institutions where when the demand is repeated to stand against this injustice the official answers lack the least attitude of respect and responsibility for such expertise considering the old employees as being submitted to their false procedures which is in most cases characterized by intolerance, differentiation and illegal nepotism.

An official document asking an old employee to stop asking for her right

HHRO have monitored victims of these policies who are members of minority communities, who carried out administrative and even political responsibilities, one of these cases is the case of Alexi Warkisi who was relieved from his positions and stripped from his employment level though bizarre decision during the last days of the parliamentary session which was led by Mr. Osama al-Nujaifi, after his continues requests to take back his rights during the next parliamentary session which was also led by Mr. Osama al-Nujaifi, Mr. al-Nujaifi formed an investigation committee from the house of representatives which ended up with fair recommendation for Alexi but it hasn’t been implemented. Alexi added that the current parliament chairman Salim al-Jabouri asking for him to bring him back to service but he didn’t fulfill his promise for reasons we don’t know although the investigation committee formed by al-Nujaifi has been fair to Alexi and showed how the decisions that removed Alexi

50 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report from his position were unfair and were contrary to laws and regulations, here are few points raised by the committee:

 Lack of need and benefit came in contradiction with the competency assessment of Mr. Alexi Warkisi.  The position of a security advisor is one of the installed positions in the organizational structure of the parliament and cancelling this position is contrary to Article 9/six of the internal system of the parliament.  The committee realized that Mr. Adnan Abd Alaziz who was appointed as a financial advisor instead of Mr. Alexi has the same level of education. Therefore, why relieve Mr. Alexi from his positions due to lack of need and benefit and appoint another with the same level of education.  The committee noticed that the order to relieve Alexi was issued on 15/03/2010 which is the last day of the activities of parliament during the past elections session, which means that the chairman of the parliament and his deputies lose their authority by the end of the session on 15/03/2010, so why relieve him during the last day of the activities of the parliament and not prior to that.  The procedures of appointing, relieving, transferring, retirement … for the employees of the parliament including the advisors, the managers and the chief of staff must be according to the principle of balance which is referred to in paragraph (A) of Article 9/twelve from the internal system.  The committee notices that what was listed in the administrative decision No. 429 on 15/03/2010 is to relieve Alexi from his duties not from his employment degree thus Alexi has the right to keep his employment degree (advisor).  The decision to relieve him is in contradiction with the law if it isn’t listed within the law of civil service No. 24 for 1960 amended or the law of the governmental employees’s discipline No. 14 for 1991.  The committee also noticed that the administrative decision No. 429 for 15/03/2010 was signed on 24/01/2010 but issued on 15/03/2010, which means a month and a half after being signed which means that there was a will to issue the decision on 15/03/2010.

The first victim of the governmental reform process which started late 2015 were minorities such as Christians and Turkmen, Iraqi components whose participation in the current government was cancelled. Christians managed to get their share through the Quota system, the minister of scientific research and technology was Mr. Faris Jajjo but suddenly he was relieved from his duty of administrating the ministry despite his qualification, and he is one of the old activists and fighters who dedicated his time to work painstakingly to record many achievements for the ministry, and not for the participation of the mentioned component in the Iraqi administration resolutions. This violations of the current system and all current officials have participated in imposing this in order to have a wider participation in the national work and the managing the country’s affairs. But unfortunately, it seems like what is rightful for the majorities is taboo for minorities and who doesn’t have militias. But leaving this marginalization untreated represents a violation of the rights of the weak and

51 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report an encouragement for emigration for thousands of Christian families whom were victims of the Islamic State and living in camps and complexes away from their homes and lands which are occupied by the gangs of the Islamic State, stripped from all their belongings. This assault on one of Christians nationality rights and other minorities proves the diminishing of their importance and existence. It is quite unfortunate that there is no stand by MPs who reach their offices through the votes of the Christian quota and haven’t bothered taking the responsibility of the cause of their people and transferring it to this legislative institutions.

Although the Genocide and the massacres that took place since 2003, continue to crush this components, their case hasn’t been a parliamentary case yet. Excluding Yazidies, whose representative had a stand that imposed their case on the parliament. And this is what prioritized their case not only nationally but also internationally … which justifies for the Christian component to put the responsibility on their representatives in the parliament for ignoring this case which should’ve been with their top priorities.

 HHRO received information about an armed attack on 04/05/2015, on 5 liquor stores in Bab Almoaazam and Almostansirya street, besides Alrasafa in Baghdad and Allawi Alhilla in Alkarakh, which resulting in the death of 7 of whom were working in those shops among them 4 yazidies, 2 Muslims and 1 Christian, most of them were IDPs from Nineveh and Sinjar.  HHRO continued monitoring the case of Intisar Almayali, the passports officer in Alnajaf province refused to renew her passport because she wasn’t wearing a Hijab in her passport image, it seems like this incident actually happened because Intisar was keen to include guaranteed information, HHRO believes that what happened represents a staggering violations of this citizen’s rights and a violation of the Iraqi constitution in its second Article noting that the officer refused to comply with the orders of the manager to go with the required procedures which represents a challenge to the employment mechanisms, and the question here is what is the basis for this officer’s stubbornness.  HHRO received a report, reflecting the tragic image of the discriminatory policies between minorities and other employees in Shikhan hospital, with the hospital’s administration acting like the hospital is their own with no consideration for the citizenship rights and the rights of employment which all employees must enjoy with no discrimination or marginalization, one of the examined cases was punishing a doctor who is from a minority community for his condemnation of the Islamic State and terrorist groups …

Violations against displaced minority students, educational bodies and educators

While violations committed against IDPs are numerous, they remain violations that targets the educational rights of their children, what happened to teachers, professors and educational institutions is a clear layout for these violations: since the Islamic State’s occupation of Mosul on 10/06/2014, and their advance towards the Nineveh plain, Sinjar, Zumar and other cities, towns and villages, thousands of students had to drop out of schools, high schools, universities … after being displaced. Many students were victims of

52 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report killing, kidnapping and captivity and the others were victims of marginalization and neglect in the biggest process of dropping out of school due to tragic daily life issues they had to endure. The tragic conditions of the children of displaced families can be concluded with the following:

A. Lack of schools, and when schools are available they are Caravans or tents, such as (Kabarto/2) camp which contains more than 3000 student in Duhok, (Dayrabun and Sege (Sheyoz)) complex where more than 1 thousand student live. Others schools are formed from a number of tents, despite that, it isn’t enough to provide education for the large number of Yazidi students, for example (Sharia camp where there is a school consisting of 8 tents and the number of students exceed 5600, also Bajid Kendala camp in Zakho where there are 1200 student going to a school of tents). In regards to Khanki camp, there are 3 schools and the number of students exceeds 6000, they have two, three and four shifts, and its used by the KRG’s education administration to spread the Kurdish language while lacking necessities for studying. There are incomplete buildings that have been set to include students, these buildings don’t have the social, health and educational and security arrangements. Other procedures that are taken in this regards is having two and three shifts in a number of schools in Duhok and Erbil to include these students which resulted in many negative effects affecting the general educational level. B. IDP students have suffered from lack of stationary and books, and when they are available, the quantity isn’t enough and that’s because Baghdad isn’t sending enough amounts, which is causing a decline in the educational level, HHRO have taken the initiative trying to cover a little bit of the shortage by dedicated part of its relief program to distributing stationary to a number of schools during 2014-2015 in cooperation with Christian Solidarity International, other national and international NGOs have done the same. C. IDP students have suffered from being in crowded classes where teachers aren’t able to teach properly: and according to a note from a student of a middle school in Duhok, he told HHRO team that he couldn’t ask his math teacher a question for a week because the class is overcrowded. D. One of the other violations in the educational field is having the same standards during the general exams for both displaced and nondisplaced students which isn’t right scientifically and educationally because these students have been through exceptional conditions which requires being treated differently according their conditions as IDPs and not differently. E. There are IDPs whose exceptional conditions forced them to take refuge in remote areas where camps have been built for them, or they’ve gathered in small villages especially by the Turkish borders, which made it quite difficult for their children to continue studying and thus there is no ability to establish schools for them, moreover, there are Yazidi IDPS who had to flee heading to Turkey where there is no chance for their children to have education and when there are schools that could accept them education is in Turkish which they don’t understand.

53 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

refugee Christian and Yazidi children drowning thus many Iraqi Christians lost one school year and are losing the second one in Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey. F. A delegation from HHRO have noticed that studying in school with two, three or even four shifts causes a deterioration of the scientific level, and that’s because there isn’t enough time for lectures and because few students have to stay at school until the afternoon thus they can’t concentrate, which is leading to a deterioration in the educational level. G. HHRO’s delegation diagnosed a clear flaw in the process of appointing teachers to their schools, many teachers are appointed to teach in schools that are far from their residency which makes it difficult for them to get there, also makes it financially difficult to afford transportation, this caused severe lack in educational expertise in many areas and having more than what’s needed in other areas, which had a negative effect on the scientific level of students and the biggest negative impact could be seen in girls’ school, also students and teachers form a psychological bond, but when there is no contact these students suffer from psychological interruptions, making it difficult for them to form a relationship with the new teachers whom were appointed after displacement. H. The delegation also noticed an obvious lack in what we can describe as (logistical requirements) necessary for the educational process in general, while having no urgent procedures to deal with the failures in the daily services department (drinking water, bathrooms, first aid …). I. One of the notes that were recorded by the delegation while visiting an IDPs camp was having no kindergartens in all the camps that were visited which means that there’s a need to establish kindergartens to draw the children away from the state of emptiness and depressionthey’re suffering from in their new difficult environment. J. HHRO continued to monitor the conditions of post-high school students whom were studying in the universities of Mosul and Qaraqosh, we realized through monitoring and investigation that the most dangerous thing caused by the Islamic state have

54 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

mainly affected the students of Qaraqosh university, whereas the harm done to the university of Mosul wasn’t as bad as Qaraqosh’s, with more details, all students of Qaraqosh university have been suffering in 3 spheres: a. Students that have stopped studying completely after displacement. b. Students who enrolled in universities in the KRG and other universities in Iraq, they face serous scientific difficulties for many reasons such as added subjects and Kurdish language. c. Students that had to stop studying because their families can’t afford it, this is impacting girls especially. In regards to students of Mosul’s university, the students who haven’t left are suffering from backwardness, having to comply with very strict instruction derived from terrorist ideology, many faculties and sections have been cancelled for the claim that they contradict with the Islamic Sharia imposed by the Islamic State, other students who had to leave have joined universities in the KRG and in other areas in Iraq. K. HHRO’s team set to monitor violations against students in the educational field have realized that Christian and Yazidi students are the most damaged. L. HHRO noticed that the procedures taken by the government did not include any contexts on a certain degree of continuity butratherintermittent, traditionaland based on a view that doesn’t see the gravity of these violations on the reality of displaced students, we also noticed that the supreme committee formed by the government to address the conditions of the IDPs didn’t give enough attention to this subject. M. HHRO noticed that school allocated by the regional government for IDPs were quite few with the condition of having an evening shift, in the center of Duhok province only 5 schools were allocated to IDPs, the other schools are either rented or built with the help of humanitarian organizations or with support from the UN (UNICEF), there was no effective role for the representation of the ministry of education for Nineveh and , the representation’s role was limited to renting two houses in Erbil and few buildings in Duhok despite the huge amounts of money allocated for rent. N. The spread of tutoring or private teaching because of the discontinuity of schools and the lack of concern by the teaching staff, also the encouragement to do so by few teachers and supervisors in order to achieve personal gain at the expense of the families’ deteriorating financial conditions. O. Because a number principles stayed in Mosul, and because other whom are displaced but didn’t take responsibility for administrating their schools in places of displacement, the Educational Directorate of Nineveh had to assign substitutes without cashing administrative expenses for the new appointees. P. We couldn’t have precise numbers of displaced students who dropped out of school in Duhok but our estimations indicate to more than 1500 student, while other statistics received by HHRO indicate that displaced students in Erbil who dropped out of school during 2014 have reached 1000 student.

55 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Q. One of the negative phenomena which also represent a bitter reality, is the difficulty of getting to schools due to transportation expenses that those displaced families in IDP camps will have to endure, HHRO realized that this reason have prevented few families from sending their children to schools, because they can’t afford transportation. R. The neglect and the reluctance of the Ministry of Displacement and Migration, which is the main party responsible for taking care of camps and of the health and educational services, despite the huge money granted by the federal government. S. There is an obvious neglect of the studying materials of Christianity and Syriac language, same case for and P.E. in schools of IDPs, where negligence amounted to total elimination of these subjects in certain cases. T. The delay in cashing the salaries of educational institutions, the delay could extend to more than 3 or 4 months, while they desperately need their salaries because they already live in very harsh financial conditions as IDPs. Proposals and Recommendations

1. There is urgent need to establish 20 schools, formed of Caravans in IDPs gatherings within the province of Duhok, there also the need for the same number of schools in Erbil which also should be equipped with the necessary teaching supplies from stationary and books in order to alleviate the pressure on the existing schools which has to go through 3 and 4 shifts a day to cover the large number of students, also to minimize the number of students in each class which continued rising until the number reached 70+ student in one class. 2. There is urgent need for governmental agencies in the ministry of education and the ministry of higher education to have resolutions facilitating the return of all students to schools and universities according to the field of expertise the student was studying. 3. Establishing kindergartens in IDP camps in Duhok and Erbil to take in children while being provided with the necessary capabilities, in this field you can be helped by civil society organizations and also by retired teachers or in the field of the support that is being provided by the Churches. 4. Finding a solution for the problem which many displaced teachers suffer from, by compensating them for transportation or providing buses that would transport them to where they’re appointed to work from the city to the camps and vice versa. 5. Increasing coordination and cooperation with UNICEF in the context of providing necessary support to reduce such violations, it is possible to establish a joint center with different government agencies, civil society organizations and UNICEF to confront this type of challenges. 6. That the ministry of migration and displacement to take its moral, administrative, legal and financial responsibility in regards to provide services in camps in cooperation with both the ministry of education and the ministry of higher education, or any other governmental agency that would allocate a proper monthly grant for displaced students in Erbil and Duhok who have enrolled in universities and

56 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

educational institutions to help alleviate the pressure put on their families financially as a result. Thanks to many Church related organization and other NGOs including HHRO for their ability to participate in coordination with each other to alleviate the suffering caused by this issue, either partially or completely, helping the students whom are continuing their education in cities other than the ones they’ve took refuge in. 7. linking the departments of the districts’ educational directorates with their previous directorates, and unlinking them to the current directorates, especially (Qaraqosh educational directorate department) which is currently linked to the general directorate in Anbar while it was linked to the educational directorate in Nineveh previously, this created a lot of confusion for the educational staff. HHRO have tried to bring the attention of the ministry of education to this problem but unfortunately, and as is the case in most Iraqi governmental institutions, this initiative was seen as a complaint against the ministry instead of being understood as cooperation to achieve the required reform and development by taking the proper procedures in light of the rising challenges as a result to a heinous Genocide which had its negative impact in the hearts of its victims who need guarantees for their humanitarian dignity and respect for their most basic human rights, and that’s through facilitating providing help for those victims. What was quite unfortunate was that few officials of the ministry of educations have viewed our memo as being something that must be confronted and responded to in a way that hides a lot of desperate defense of every move and activity held and achieved by the ministry, pointing to these activities in their long answers as if there is a need to explain the ministry’s work which is only its duty. What is quite weird is that there is no understanding of the working mechanism of nongovernmental organizations as monitors of human rights status, it is our duty to bring the attention of the official to what could be within the context of violations and not what deserves “medals of courage” not only to support students and the educational staff, but also to support the ministry in its effort to have resolutions and procedures that are more effective and which leads to its success, thus the success and benefit of everyone involved. This is what HHRO was doing pre Islamic State, cooperating with the ministry of higher education to establish the university of Qaraqosh and attracting financial support to equip the scientific labs of physics, chemistry and science, in the addition to the equipment for the sports hall. HHRO also cooperated with Qaraqosh educational directorate department … therefore, we ask the governmental institutions to put their trust in the voluntary work of civil society organizations and consider them as partners and get used to joint cooperation because eventually, every success is for the best interest for the institutions and not necessarily for the best interest of the supporting organizations which are just tools participating in the process of democratization of the new system to guide the policy maker to what’s right and not to replace his position! 8. Giving financial and administrative independency for the educational directorates’ departments in different districts to ease the educational process.

57 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Conditions of Iraqi IDPs

Displaced Iraqis suffer a dramatic situation characterized by four dimensions: First Dimension: concerning psychological effects and the negative and harsh environment which was a reason for leaving their homes while threatened by terrorist groups. Second Dimension: is related to the general social and economic situation they found themselves in after displacement, a situation they never experienced and lived under its pressure before, nowadays, many families are living under compulsory sociability, sharing services which are already weak and few, to explain even further, most of these displaced families don’t have true independency and privacy having to share camps, incomplete buildings, public places or the surroundings of churches.

Third Dimension:is related to what all of them are experiencing under the influence of the current hindrance to the possibility of them returning to their homes, with many variations and contradictions in the information provided by media and politics regarding the possibilities of cleansing their areas of all IS militants, and their return, and the possibility that their return, if it happens, will be subject to extortion under the pressure of big political blocs in the context of what is known as disputed areas, as well as the fluctuation of the general international position on this file, and the ongoing political and security tension between the regional and the central government. Fourth Dimension:is associated with the weakness of the vision and the common national desire as a result of political intersections and mismatches on a unified mechanism to liberate the areas controlled by ISIS, and especially the areas of Sinjar and the Nineveh Plain which promoted the idea of leaving the country and emigration to neighboring countries and the settlement in the diaspora as a result of lost confidence in political decision makers.

 Other violations against IDPs relate to families splitting as a result of marriages, new families complain about the difficult economic situation, the Iraqi Government did not include them in the grant of the million dinars given by the Ministry of Migration

58 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

and Displacement to the IDPs from the center of Mosul province, among the ones who will be given the grant are the ones who have their marriage certificates dated to prior 10/6/2014, IDPs from the Nineveh Plain covered by the grant of one million are whose marriage certificates date to prior 6/8/2014 in general as well as having cases of separation and divorce in many displaced families for the reasons of economic and psychological pressure, Hammurabi is working on monitoring and recording these cases to issue subsequent reports regarding this matter, and have indeed managed to form a list of more than 300 cases that should be covered by the one million grant and the list is sent to the prime minister office Mr. Haidar al- Abaddi, we haven’t received any answer until the date of this report.  Hammurabi Human Rights Organization received information from its sources stating that Asayish forces at 2 AM, Monday night 25/5/2015 were in the street of Mart Shmoni church in Ankawa / Erbil, where they arrested two of the Christian IDPs from the Nineveh Plain, but within half an hour they were released, after that, they took "the Annual Vehicle Registration Licenses of the cars that were parked there and the IDs of the drivers" and they attacked the cars with Nineveh numbers on their license plate which belonged to Christians, they vented the tires of the parked cars, then they went to the owners of copying shops, who were selling cigarettes there, they took their IDs, and among these people, Imad, Salam, Nashwan Kajo, Sabah, Isam, and then they left the area, same sources assured that the Asayish forces came in "2 Pick-Up cars and a military car, carrying about 16 Asayish members, under the leadership of their manager Sarmad Jalal who was screaming at them with curses in Kurdish. Next day, Tuesday 26th of the same month, morning at 10 AM, another group of Asayish members visited the same area and they assaulted Salam Adel Yalda, he was arrested for a full day, with charges of cursing the people of Ankawa, they assaulted him in from of everyone and took him to their headquarters, but later it turned out, and according to witnesses, that the charges were false.  There aren't exact numbers for the IDPs from Mosul, Nineveh Plain, Sinjar and Tal- Afar, also there are no numbers of the displaced from Diyala, Salah Al-Din and Anbar because there are many families that reached other cities without being registered as IDPs, according to international and official statistics the number of IDPs have reached 3 million IDP, whereas Hammurabi Human Rights Organization can estimate the numberof Yazidi IDPs to about 400 thousand, most of them are in Region with a considerable percentage in Turkey reaching about 20 thousand, whereas Christians exceeded two hundred thousand, scattered between the cities of the KRG, Baghdad, neighboring countries and Lebanon, Shabak are about 150 thousand, most of them moved to southern Iraq, Turkmen have about 300 IDPs in the KRG, and according to information available with HHRO, the number of Sunni IDPs who have reached the KRG is about half a million IDP, others are scattered in the cities of Baghdad, Karbala and .  Many known mental illnesses such as psychosis, depression, anxiety and frustration are things that recurs daily in the camps, Hammurabi Human Rights Organization have documented many, in addition of the suffering of what is known as the group

59 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

of survivors IDPs, who escaped the prisons and detentions of the terrorists, most of them are women and children who suffer from trauma, and this happens especially among girls and women who have been sold and raped

A Syriac painting about the conditions of Yazidi and Christian women (Karlovy Vary Hotel Exhibition) but they were able to escape, and their numbers are estimated at about 2,000 people including boys, girls, women and men. The bad conditions IDPs endure daily produced cases of depression which promoted the idea of suicide, four cases among Yazidies were recorded in the province of Duhok.  HHRO’s field team which toured most of the IDPs camps, was assured that they suffer an obvious problem, which lies in an obvious decline in the cases of pregnancy and birth giving among women for many reasons, some of which comes in the psychological and physical framework, and others are related to the couples unwillingness to have children due to the living conditions in which they live and which does not allow to bear the discomfort of providing and caring for a new child, alongside providing what is required in everyday life.

Evaluating the conditions of Christian IDPs’ camps and complexes in the center of Erbil, Ankawa, Duhok, Sulaymaniyah and Kirkuk

Hammurabi Human Rights Organization have been successful in evaluating the condition in a number of IDPs’ camps and complexes, based on 12 samples of Christian camps and gathering in Erbil and Ankawa, the samples are represented by Ashti 1, Ashti 2, Dirwaz Howler, Ayoun Erbil, Alamal complex, Alkarma complex, Ozal city complex, Jihan complex, Ankawa youth center, Nashtiman complex, Mar Elia, and the rented houses complexes in the suburbs of Erbil, it became clear to us that there were (10217) family, 40250 people, Christian displaced living in these camps and received aid from churches, international

60 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report humanitarian organizations including Salt Foundation, Peace and Hope organization, the Sacred Family organization and Hammurabi Human Rights Organization which was assured that only 50% of IDPs receive clean water but in amounts that’s not enough for home use.

HHRO have noticed that few residents of these camps get their water through tankers, in most cases the provided water is not sterilized, this case could be noticed in Ashti 1, Jihan, Ankawa Youth Center and Alamal camp. HHRO have also noticed that in the majority of these camps the bathrooms and toilets are shared between the different IDPs excluding Nashtiman and Ashti 2 where there’s a bathroom allocated to each family. In regards to electricity, HHRO noticed that the people of these complexes and camps get an approximate of 12 to 15 hours of government supply of electricity, whereas they depend on generators for electricity for the rest of the day. HHRO have realized that most of these complexes doesn’t have an allocated doctor, and that 60% of IDPs aren’t visited by doctors, whereas most camps are near to health center, and only 25% of those centers are far from the camps. According to IDPs’ testimonies, HHRO was assured that 50% of IDPs don’t feel safe as a result to the weakness of adopted security procedures, whereas 40% of those complexes are protected by trained guards, and there are serious concerns that terrorists might managed to enter these complexes in booby-trapped cars despite the fact that cars are

61 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report searched and examined by the guards before entering, as a result to these examinations HHRO concluded the following: 1. The importance of increasing the number of bathrooms in addition to the amounts of clean water allocated to them. 2. Providing cleaning supplies, sterilizers and soap to prevent the outbreak of diseases and epidemics, for HHRO have realized that there is a lack in such items in general. 3. Trying to provide fuels for heating and using the generators, putting into consideration that most families don’t have enough money to purchase fuel. 4. Trying to decrease the number of families or people living in the rented houses for IDPs, in certain cases, 4 to 5 families are living and sharing services in one house due to the high cost of rented houses and the government’s inability to pay its obligations to IDPs, such as the monthly 400 thousand dinars grant. 5. Providing transportation for displaced students, to be able to go from their camps to schools and vice versa. 6. HHRO encourages the authorities responsible of these camps to hold training programs for IDPs about computer skills, language, sewing and other, in order to eliminate the rampant unemployment and provide jobs opportunities. HHRO has learned that there are 16 IDPs camps in Duhok, and more than 12 in Erbil, also HHRO counted the number of Christian IDPs in Erbil camps early 2015, the number of families reached 10663, and the number of people reached about 42230 person, which indicates that about 446 families have emigrated in between early and late 2015, and that 6578 family lives in shared rented houses, where no less than 3 families share ones house, (each family takes a room), putting into consideration that Christian families consist of 4 – 5 members in general, whereas 4085 family lives in camps and complexes established for IDPs, HHRO learned that most Christian IDPs in Erbil are Syriac Catholics and their number reaches 6463 families (23146 person), and that there are 2850 Syriac Orthodox family (10800 person), and the Chaldeans are about 1350 family which is approximately (5200 person), HHRO also learned about 1000 houses that have been rented by the Church for IDPs, whereas other IDPs have to pay for rent by themselves, and according to an important source within the church, the money spend on rents by the Church reaches 700 thousand dollars monthly, all IDPs living in that area are either living in rented homes or in Caravans, in regards to their return, Christians are still waiting for the liberation of their areas to go back but when it comes to the other Iraqi IDPs and percentage that will go back is quite nominal due to the destruction that took place in the liberated areas, about 15% of Yazidies have returned to Sinjar, while more than 1000 family have been recorded to go back to Tikrit after being cleansed of the Islamic State militants. In regards to Duhok, HHRO have undertaken a field survey in many areas where displaced Christian families from the Nineveh plain, Mosul and other areas live in the center of Duhok province and the districts of (Zakho, Sumel, Amedi, Akra and Shikhan) in addition Alqosh sub-district which is part of Nineveh province, we concluded that the number of IDPs reaches (4414) Christian family, most of them live in Christian village, few camps and rented houses, while HHRO was assured that the number of Christian displaced families living in

 After a number of visits conducted by a team from Hammurabi Human Rights Organization, we learned that there is obvious decline in the amount of help and aid provided to IDPs, and that there are other needs that arises during summer especially with the outbreak of mosquitos and the recorded cases of Malaria, skin diseases, digestive system diseases which have only recently been recorded, cases such as (scabies and cutaneous leishmaniasis) among children and women specifically.

65 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization have seen that displaced families have are quite concerned about the educational future of their children, especially among Christian and Yazidi IDPs, because many students have dropped out of the temporary schools established for them (Tents, Caravans, Houses) after displacement because they faced a different educational environment in comparison to what they were used to, in addition to the different quality of education and educational materials.

Drowning Yazidi and Christian refugees  HHRO received documented information regarding mismanagement of Al-Qadia IDP camp in Zakho, according to the report, which deals with the conditions of the camp, the camp administration is indifferent to their situation and humanitarian needs of water and electricity, where water outages continue for hours, causing shortages in water which doesn’t reach all camp IDPs who are about 4,000 citizens including many survivors and their families, also electricity outages happen at the most needed time (the afternoon) and takes long hours that could reach 3 hours which adds to the pile of issues these IDPs endure, note that this is a caravans camp, where caravans can turn into what is similar to (Sauna) because the caravans doesn’t have the specifications to isolate heat and are not suitable to bear with the nature of Iraq’s atmosphere, which is characterized by dry heat in the summer.  Qassem Falah Hassan, a three years old IDP in camp (Sharia) was exposed to a skin disease known as Pemphigus which is a serious disease and it came as a result of pollution which is widespread in the camp and in IDP camps in general, there are expectations that this disease will spread among other children. Iraqi Refugees in Neighboring Countries

Iraqi refugees’ conditions in neighboring countries could be concluded by a tragic image, the vast majority of those refugees are among minorities and especially Christians, Yazidies and others … In general, the challenges facing those refugees are similar: lack of daily services, deteriorating financial conditions, difficulties in finding proper residency, and the same case is true whether they are in Turkey, Jordan, Lebanon or the old camps in Iraq …

66 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Iraqi Refugees in Turkey In regard to refugees living in camps in Turkey, the procedures adopted in these camps based on security excuses are oppressive and humiliating stripping those refugees from their basic humanitarian rights, one of the facts that one should mention is that there are no fixed numbers of Iraqi refugees. Our organization was informed by sources related to a church in Turkey that the number of Iraqi Christian asylum seekers have reached more than 35 thousand. The statistics are changing around the clock, not a day passes without the influx of new Iraqi refugees, also few of them have gone looking for a residence in the Turkish cities on the coast of the Aegean, Mediterranean and Black sea, UNHCR promises long-dated interviews and possibilities of emigration, few of them are dated to 2022.

 Yazidi refugees in the Turkish camp of Nusaybin are suffering from daily violations committed by the camp’s administration, a number of refugees were arrested and other were subject to various types of torture. The Yazidi activist who called HHRO described the conditions in the camp as unbearable and are now similar to a prison, the camp is subject to tight security measures and the refugees are not allowed to leave the camp under any circumstances except through a very complex security procedure, the situation in the camp have exacerbated after being visited by one of the Turkish officials which encouraged many Yazidi refugees to present their requests and complaints to him hoping that this could change the conditions in the camp and put an end to the violations they endure, this was interpreted by the camp’s administration as a direct complaint against them, thus they escalated their campaign of violations with many procedures that denies the simplest human rights.  The difficult conditions many Iraqi refugees are forced to endure have encouraged them to risk their lives on death boats trying to reach one of the European countries,

Christian cemeteries in displacement Yazidi youths and students who drowned In 2015, cases of Iraqi children, women and men drowning have been recorded and declared, most of them were Yazidis, the number of Yazidis who’ve drowned is higher than 200 Yazidi, most of them children and women, also dozens of Christian have died the same way.

67 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

One of the other concerning violations: many refugees there have been blackmailed, forced into paying large amount of money and promised to reach one of the European countries, but then left nowhere, exposed to being sexually assaulted by the local mafias, and stripped from all their belongings (cash, watches, mobile phones, gold, jewelry …) One of the violations that is recorded in Turkey targeting Iraqi Christian and Yazidi refugees is that their camps are situated in the Turkish-Kurdish territories which is territories that are targeted by the Turkish army’s fire power during clashes with the fighters of the PKK, thus those refugees where subject to man violations as a result.

 A Yazidi activist related to Hammurabi Human Rights Organization have provided that few Yazidi refugees have been stripped from all their valuables by the security forces on the Bulgarian borders, they’ve also been subject to insults, sexual assaults and extortion.  It’s important for us to talk about the Iraqi refugees’ struggle in turkey, we were assured by reliable sources in connection with Hammurabi Human Rights Organization that Yazidi refugee camps in Turkey are now similar to prisons, the camps are subject to tight security measures and the refugees are not allowed to leave the camp under any circumstances except through a very complex security procedures, the refugees were stripped from their communication devices (mobile phones, personal computers) and communications via Internet were blocked, in addition to a daily suffering due to lack of public services, and According to the latest information provided to HHRO, a state of discontent and bitterness started to dominate the lives of these refugees in Nusaybin, Midyat, Diyarbakir, batman and Shernakh camps, forcing few of those refugees to migrate walking or using busses heading to the Bulgarian territory, and on 27/6/2015 more than 1500 refugee left, expecting this number to rise to 12,000 during the last week of June 2015, one of the refugees tried to suicide by hanging himself as a result to depression, but other refugees saved him.  According to reliable information, relief staff of the United Nations are facing difficulties in providing relief for these refugees or configuring a database of their information, where most of the refugees in these camps complain from isolation from the outer world, and it rarely happens to have humanitarian relief or human rights organizations visiting without the intervention of Turkish authorities. In regards to Iraqi refugees in Jordan, there are no camps in there, the refugees are scattered around and in the Jordanian capital of Oman, waiting for the UNHCR to get them into of the countries that welcomes refugees. Talking about Iraqi refugees in Syria holds many question marks due to the destructive crisis in the country.

Iraqi Refugees in Jordan

The struggle of Iraqis who sought refuge in Jordan is no different from the struggle of their counterparts in other neighboring countries to Iraq, but with a bit difference in the general struggle. In regards to their numbers, they might be more or less, but in total their number exceeds, according to a report prepared by the Iraqi refugee Sabira Slio Masios who lives in

68 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report the Jordanian capital, 131 thousand and the number of Christians is about 8 thousand, the applicants of UNHCR in Jordan are 32 thousand Iraqis, thousands of Iraqis have been in Jordan for more than 10 years, those had to take refuge there due to political reasons but fear that staying in Iraq might put them in danger but the vast majority have left Iraq to Jordan after the occupation of the Islamic State and the exacerbated political, social and security conditions, including Christians. Iraqi have sought refuge in Jordan despite the country’s limited resources, which made them a heavy burden to carry by the Jordanian government, and despite all of this, we haven’t seen any positive role for the Iraqi government in helping its own citizens or providing support, they were left to face their fate, suffering the worst, and what made things even worst, is that the Iraqi government has stopped cashing the salaries of the refugees that are employees, and they haven’t been included to receive the one million dinar grant as their brothers in Iraq.

The majority of Iraqis, especially Christians, live in crowded gatherings in the suburbs of Oman, in such difficult conditions, depending on what they’ve managed to save earlier and the aid they receive from humanitarian organizations and Christian assemblies linked to Churches. Which is scarce compared to the number of refugees in Jordan. Which is a lot of money for people living in their difficult financial conditions, most the apartments don’t meet the qualifications of a healthy residence for a number of reasons: Humidity, Moldiness, rickety furniture … many refugees rent unfurnished apartments, and only furnishes it with the basic needs, most of it provided by Churches and donors.

Iraqis aren’t allowed to work without official permits, which further exacerbated their conditions. A number of them work secretly without official permits to cover for their daily expenseswhich makes them subject to being exploited by employers, and they’re forced to do so because they’ve been there for too long without a job, and all the money they saved is beginning to run out. Especially that there is almost no hope for them to go back to where they used to work and live, and the hope is quite weak for one of their asylum seeking applications to foreign countries to be approved especially that the UNHCR have denied responsibility for most of the Iraqi refugees in Jordan, Christians in particular.

Most Iraqi refugees in Jordan live without rights and no official recognition as refugees by the UNHCR after September 2012, this means that they won’t receive any aid (financial, health care …). While enjoying those rights prior to that date, there was a process by the UNHCR to determine if they were refugees or not, personal interviews were conducted and the ones who manage to pass these interviews holds a refugee status to receive aid. Thus we find many social problems that have exacerbated afterwards, addition to the difficulty of living in the already harsh financial and psychological conditions experienced by the Iraqi families and especially the women, whom were subject to insults, humiliation and difficult humanitarian conditions, while their children’s social and educational future fades away, this situations provoked many protests asking the UNHCR to find solutions to this problem and to go through with the submitted emigration files.

Humanitarian Assemblies and provided services are quite scarce, as we mentioned before, due to the large number of refugees in Jordan, food is being provided by Caritas

69 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report organizations, the Pontifical Mission and Church related Assemblies but the provided aid is limited to Christian holidays.

Education is not bad there, there is support by Caritas covering all Christian students during elementary, middle and high school. Also the Iraqi Cultural Attache in Jordan is holding the ministerial examinations for all students.

In regards to health care, there are charitable health center such as Health Aid Society, Caritas Health, Mar Loqa Health Center for Christians and for curing refugees with ordinary diseases, conducting urgent surgeries and providing medicine to those with chronic diseases, these center are operational when funds are available, and because funds aren’t always available, also because there are many appointments for patients, few patients are forced to go to private doctors and buy their medicines with quite the expensive cost.

According to Basim Ishou’ Alkassab, human rights activist and president of Alata’ organization for fighting poverty in Iraq: Iraqi refugees in Jordan are suffering from:

1. Having areas that are well organized where everyone received aid from churches, such as Alfuhais district, which is predominantly Christian, also Alzarqaa area, but in areas like Alhashimi which is in the center of where the IDPs stay, there is no justice in the distribution process. 2. The UNHCR’s procrastination in Jordan when it comes to working on the asylum applications, when I tried to discuss this with them while meeting many of their employees, they confirmed that the problem is not in the UNHCR itself rather in the welcoming countries. 3. The high number of Syrian refugees who receive a lot of aid and assistant from all organizations unlike Iraqi who’s been rejected by many organizations. 4. The salaries cut, refugees who used to be employee haven’t received their salaries for a while ago, this issue was presented to a number of religious leaders such as Patriarch Youssif Yonan and Patriarch Louis Sako during their visit to Jordan, it has also been presented to the former Iraqi ambassador Mr. Jawad Abbas Hadi and Mr, Safaa Hussien the representative of the Iraqi ministry of emigration, there have also been contact with a number of Iraqi MPs from the representatives of the Christian component, and lists of the names of employees in the neighboring countries (Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey) has been sent to them but with no results, which had a negative impact on the psychological and economic conditions of the refugees. 5. The Iraqi Embassy in Jordan gives more attention to the Christian refugees living in Churches while ignoring the ones living in rented apartments.

Iraqi Refugees

In Lebanon

 There is no fixed date for the influx of Iraqi refugees to Lebanon, but there are different critical times connected to the sectarian escalation in Iraq and what’s

70 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

resulted by that from threats for a number of the basic Iraqi components ((Minorities)).  Many Iraqis left to Lebanon during the unjust rule of Saddam Hussein, but the biggest influx of Iraqi refugees to Lebanon started in 2006-2007, during the sectarian escalation and the growing lawlessness witnessed during that period of time and afterwards in Baghdad and a number of Iraqi governorates such as the Nineveh province which suffered the worst, afterwards, the ground for such waves of lawlessness expanded after the occupation of the Islamic State of Mosul on 10/Jun/2014, and following that with many areas of the province getting captured by the Islamic State militants including Sinjar, Tell Afar, Tell Kayf, Qaraqosh, Karamles, Tell Skuf, Bartella, Batnay and other towns and villages in the Nineveh plain, following that a wave of killing, arresting, abduction, torture, confiscating properties, destroying religious and cultural monuments, bombing, raping and captivating, moreover, the exaggerated media coverage accompanied by the expanding land of lawlessness in Iraq have contributed to a certain extent to accelerate the process of displacement and emigration to Lebanon, few of them with the help of the UNHCR, others based on personal decisions reflecting their concerns about Iraqis in Syria, one of the things that we’ve learned about Beirut is that the city is full of Iraqi tourists, and Iraqi tourism companies are organizing trips and journeys for them, while Iraqi refugees are scattered far from parties that attract those tourists.  Most Iraqi refugees are scattered around and in Beirut, specifically where there is cheap residencyfor rent, we can find their gatherings in the neighborhoods of Albishria dam, Dkowana, Burj Barajneh, Aldora, sides of Jonia and Jubail, there is only few Iraqi refugees in the areas of the mountain, Baalbak and southern Lebanon, especially in Saida where people who take refugees in such areas are people who might have social relationships with the locals, we can conclude that only a small number of Iraqi refugees have lived far from Beirut and its suburbs because they need to be close to the United Nations mission, which manages their affairs, hoping to be relocated somewhere else as soon as possible, there is dissimilarity between the different views and hopes of refugees in regards to emigrating to one of the European countries, Canada, United States or Australia, none of the people we met indicated that he’d rather stay in Lebanon until things get better in Iraq.  The dialogues HHRO had with a number of Iraqi refugees in Lebanon have revealed the unity of their concerns and strains they suffer from, it was quite clear for us that there was no significant difference between the diagnoses they provided, the following is our conclusion of those diagnoses: First:accommodation problem: all Iraqi refugees in Beirut and its suburbs suffer from this same issue, a simple tiny apartment could be rented for 400 to 600 $ monthly, and the prices go higher as close as you get to the center of Beirut where an apartment’s rent could reach 800 $ a month, thus we can say that providing accommodation for one Iraqi refugee family would drain 70% from its irregular monthly income, this is why many families had to change their residence more than once fleeing expensive rents where as other Iraqi families have decided to share one apartment, many people have informed us about this phenomena, two to three

71 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

families share one room in certain cases, which creates a collision in the relationship between these families and in the context of the relationships between the children, other information indicates that most of these families are paying for rent from the money they got after selling their properties in Iraq, or their savings, gold and jewelry while others get help from their relatives in the diaspora, it is rare to find cases where humanitarian organizations are covering the rent including the scarce aid provided by United Nations agencies, but the aid that is supervised by the church aims to ease providing these rents although it doesn’t cover the basic needs of the refugees, and the large influx of Syrian refugees to Lebanon have only exacerbated the problem for Iraqis which caused a rise in rents to a unprecedented amounts. Second:unemployment, which is a problem experienced by the vast majority of Iraqi refugees due to the economic downturn Lebanon has been suffering from as a result to the political conditions and conflict between the different political components, which led to a decline in investments which used to be a strong attraction during the past years, in general, unemployment puts much social and economic pressure on Iraqi refugees, and when an Iraqi managed to find a certain job opportunity, it comes with very difficult conditions and practices of extortion where the simplest rights which everyone who has a job must enjoy are absent. We met a number of Iraqi refugees who managed to find a job, we concluded the following afterwards: 1. All of them are subject to the conditions of the employer, not the conditions set by the employment rights labels according to standards set by specialized agencies in promoting these rights. 2. We met more than one Iraqi who managed to find a job in the services field in Alrosha and Hamra’ areas, we learned that their working hours extend from 10 in the morning until 10 at night, others until 12 at night, although the monthly salary either way is 500 $, part of it will be spent on transportation and daily needs. 3. We’ve met more than one Iraqi refugee complaining that he’s been kicked out of work without being given his compensation for what he did earlier, most of the available job opportunities are in the fields of services and construction, and most Iraqis can’t find stability in working, most of them are forced to move looking for a better job, and there’s an obvious competition with Syrian refugees in this regards. Third:the lack of aid provided to these refugees for many reasons, some of them are related to the large number of Syrian and Iraqi refugees where the Syrian refugees have exceeded 1.5 million scattered around Lebanon and especially in the capital of Beirut, while Iraq refugees are between 75 and 100 thousand, thus humanitarian organizations can’t cover all Iraqi families, it is worth mentioning that a number of donating institutions impose certain conditions to how the funds are distributed, therefore limits the activity of the parties managing the distribution of funds, also aid is provided from time to time, with no regards to the needs of the refugees, a number of refugees complaint that aid is distributed according to differentiation between families and not though a just and fair mechanism. A number of refugees told us that few of them haven’t received any aid yet because the distribution mechanisms are subject to sectarian accounts.

72 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Fourth: lack of health services: there is a lack in medical services provided to refugees despite the presence of the United Nations mission in Lebanon to provide help for refugees, which has set a mechanism to help, providing few medicines and partially paying for few urgent surgeries for Iraqis whom are registered at the United Nations, a number of Iraqi refugees have told us that he paid for his surgery himself despite being registered at the United Nations Assistant Mission.

As a respond, the Syriac League in Lebanon took the initiative to develop a medical center in order to provide treatment for Iraqi refugees and other refugees, the center was established in Albishria dam neighborhood where it is open during the week excluding holidays, and in consists of a medical staff including an Iraqi doctor charging quite cheaply for their services, also there are very strict instructions by the president of the League Mr. Habib Afram to offer the services to everyone without any differentiation regardless of religion or sect.

In this regards, HHRO had many dialogues with different refugees met in Beirut, in Albishria dam neighborhood where they provided that the Iraqi embassy in Beirut hasn’t done anything to help them, and Beirut hasn’t seen any visit by any governmental delegation or someone from the embassy to check on their conditions although their locations and information are registered at the United Nations’ Mission in Lebanon.

Within the information reported to HHRO that the United Nations’ Mission in Lebanon have given many promises to support Iraqi refugees but few of these promises have been met in regards to regular aid distributions which is interrupted from time to time citing the lack of funds.

Notes and Conclusions in regards to Iraqi Refugees in Lebanon

Few conclusions from HHRO’s delegation which could be used as recommendations: A. The Iraqi embassy in Lebanon must review its attitude towards Iraqi refugees, one of the embassy’s core duties is organizing field visits to examine the conditions of the refugees where they are in the Lebanese capital of Beirut, to learn about their struggles also to know what type of services could be offered in coordination with the ministry of foreign affairs in Baghdad in regards to their properties and other issues according to the needs that require the intervention of the Iraqi government, also in coordination with the Lebanese government to solve many issues endured by the Iraqi refugees. B. For the UNHCR which is based in Beirut to have a work plan to take care of refugees while giving specific dates for interviews according to its commitments knowing that few Iraqis proceedings haven’t been looked into despite being submitted a long time ago. Also that vagueness covers the answers of the Commission in regards to the destiny of the many Iraqi refugees and there’s a widespread use of the word (patience) when answering inquiries. C. HHRO realized that there is weakness or division among the refugees as if there is competitions on who gets services and special care.

73 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

D. Although few Iraqi refugees complaint of having corruption in the proves of aid given to them but everything that was said by the refugees is in the context of general complaints without detailed information or clear facts, it seems like the harsh conditions experienced by those refugees is driving them into saying such things blaming others for their misery but this doesn’t eliminate the possibility of what their saying. E. Aid provided to refugees haven’t developed in a way that could cover their needs during the cold winter, putting into consideration that the majority of residencies housing Iraqi refugees suffer from shortage in electricity and heating fuels thus all refugees are in desperate need to what could fill this gap.

Human Rights Violations against Employees and Retirees Violations against employees and retirees are represented by unfair deductions of their monthly dues, which is a flagrant violation affecting a wide population of the Iraqi society, including victims of ISIS’s barbaric practices which continues as acts of Genocide against minorities and other Iraqis whom were unrooted from their lands. In this case, women are the ones damaged the most because their financial rights were violated unlawfully, because their salaries and retirement salaries are earned rights while providing services to the state. The state cannot touch this financial rights which represents one of the pillars to restore their dignity known as Financial Independence. Noting that the excuses promoted by the government to justify these violations were represented by the decrease in oil prices which isn’t a good justification putting into consideration the widespread wastage of public money and the unjustified expenses, as well as the administrative, financial and political corruption which storms a wide section of the Iraqi state.

These indiscriminate cuts are considered illogical detours, cancelling a number of salaries, which contradicts with the constitution and laws and reflects a tendency to “appropriation” aimed to undermine the citizens’ dignity and financial rights, citizens who’ve served the state while being in its most dangerous conditions, today they’re prevented from having a decent living with decisions that carried considerations of revenge and mistrust. Knowing that prices are going up, services’ quality is going down, raining the citizen’s income, while it’s know that all contractual laws are earned rights that cannot be derogated in any way. In case that happens, it’s considered as cheating practiced by the state to manipulate citizens’ rights citing different excuses and arguments … Yes, the state can demand its citizens’ solidarity during an exceptional crisis, and their effective and real participation in the search for solutions by decreasing the amounts of paid salaries but the difference must be considered as debt the state must pay back once the crisis fades away, the state shouldn’t adopt certain strict instruction which contradicts with the law and the constitution similar to using tools that could constitutionalize armed robberies of the earned rights of citizens … in that case, citizens will have to give up to reality, living in total confusion in a crisis with no foreseen solution, living in humiliation.

74 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

Conclusion and General Recommendations

1. Hammurabi Human Rights Organization confirms that all the violations witnessed during 2015 didn’t motivate the parties responsible for the rights and lives of Iraqi citizens to seriously address and painstakingly try to reform what’s happening in the country. 2. HHRO appeals to international human rights organization with the Human Rights council at the forefront to develop their work in order to respond decisively to protect these violated rights. 3. HHRO learned that reluctance, dereliction, neglect and indifference were daily aspects of addressing these violations despite the need for movements and pursuance to achieve results, especially in regards to the displaced. 4. HHRO has been assured of the reluctance of the international will to describe what happened to Iraqi minorities during 2014 and 2015, and prior to that, at the hands of terrorism such as the Islamic state and the rampant violence, that their acts are in fact acts of Genocide especially that hundreds of Yazidi women, also Christian women remain in captivity suffering from physical, psychological and sexual enslavement while there are no attempts to liberate them and solve the resulted problems of such crimes according to the law in a way that could save, to a certain degree, those victims’ dignity. 5. HHRO recommends all discriminated and marginalized Iraqis not to remain silent for what they’re subject to, and working to retake their stolen rights with all peaceful means available because silence and fear encourages terrorists and violent groups to persist. 6. HHRO emphasizes the importance to intensify efforts by human rights organizations specialized in children’s, women’s and minorities’ rights to prevent all sorts of violence against children, women and minorities. for example, the injustice which could occur as a result to implementing Article 26 of the National Identity Law which is originally the unjust article in the Civil Status Law No.21 / Paragraph 3 for 1972 amended. This Article in injustice to minors who cannot take a mature decision, it is also injustice to families for it deeps the religious, cultural and psychological gap between the members of a family. 7. HHRO emphasizes its previous recommendations, giving additional support financially, socially, psychologically for the survivors of ISIS prisons and detentions. 8. Giving additional attention and care to the Iraqis who went missing due to activities of armed groups, also taking care of prisons and other centers of rehabilitation in order to preserve the human dignity of the detainees. 9. HHRO expresses its hope that UNISCO would release a clear condemnation document including photographic information of the shrines, antiquities and monasteries destroyed by terrorism targeting religious and humanitarian heritage,

75 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

especially minorities’, HHRO also wishes for the Iraqi heritage and antiquities body to hold a documentation conference for these pillars of civilization. 10. HHRO wishes that the childhood body linked to the ministry of labor and social affairs will work to support displaced children and provide their needs. 11. HHRO recommends the Iraqi Parliament to hold a session especially for the conditions of Iraqi IDPs and Refuges, in addition to the council of ministers in accordance with the other countries’ positions keen to protect their citizens when subject to issues and exceptional conditions less than what Iraqis are suffering from. 12. HHRO recommends to consider 2016 as the year of IDPs, Refuges, Abducted and Iraqi prisoners, and to take decisive decisions fair to their rights. 13. HHRO hopes that 2016 will witness administrative, judicial and other procedures which could address corruption and limit its influence after it has been proven with facts that the threatening results of corruption intensifies human rights violations. 14. despite the fact that many Iraqis believe that death penalty seems as an effective solution to prevent crime in this country, others believe that it’s a justice that would satisfy the victim’s family. HHRO realizes that we haven’t reached the desired result by using this bloody measure while crime levels are getting higher and Iraqi is at the forefront of countries with excessive use of the death penalty. Which indicates that the death penalty is a continues source for constitutionalized violence and it only establishes the culture of violence and promotes revenge … and other endless bloody actions. Therefore, HHRO demands the abolition of the death penalty from the Iraqi constitution and replacing it with life sentence for whom deserves it, while developing a reformist system starting with the staff, guards, prison cells, and offering the opportunity for one to serve his sentence while preserving his dignity as a human being while being reformed and rehabilitated as a prisoner, while paying for what he did being taking away his freedom for life … 15. HHRO calls to encourage governmental banks (Alrafidain & Alrasheed) to respond to the IDPs demands who wants to withdraw the amounts of money they need from their accounts in these banks, also the policy of overlooking and underestimating practiced by the banks despite all laws and resolutions must stop, HHRO emphasizes the importance of responding to their demands to withdraw money according to their needs, and finding a mechanism to organize this. 16. HHRO have also monitored the conditions of journalists and media personnel during 2015, according to facts from the facts and information collected while working in the field, targeting this Iraqi cultural group has continued during 2015, killing and abduction was something a number of them experienced who were working in media institutions in Mosul, HHRO also recorded acts of assault against a number of journalists and deputies, these assaults were perpetrated by militiamen and terrorists, as well as assaults by the bodyguards of political officials such as what happened in Baghdad and Karbala’ and in other Iraqi cities, it is important to refer to the report issued by the International Journalism Organizations, citing facts indicating that Iraq has become a dangerous place where journalists cannot practice their profession freely, especially that the Organization mentioned 29 journalists whom were killed by the Islamic State after occupying Nineveh province.

76 Hammurabi Human Rights Organization Annual Report

CONCLUSION

To conclude what we have included in this report as a human rights defending organization, we see that the Iraqi state must prove to the families of these victims’ its ability to respond to demands for transitional justice, the first step is to work on preventing impunity and compensating the victims and their families for the lack of responsibility, security incompetence, the rampant political, financial and administrative corruption and illogical excuses adopted by officials in the judicial legislative and executive positions. Also, in HHRO, we demand for the activation of national reconciliation according to a united mechanism to avoid distraction of efforts, so different committees responsible for reconciliation could unite in one committee which could handle this subject on a national basis without reluctance which has been leading the reconciliation process backwards into a closed way .. and because transitional justice is one of the pillars of national reconciliation, we must take further steps to achieve transitional justice because we haven’t been going forward on this front. This time, not only between the ones whom inherited from the previous regime, but also between the people and the authority in general. We cannot overlook the demands of the protestors, but with mechanism other than the ones that recreate opposition rival to the government as few parties try to keep the power only for themselves which contradicts with the principals of the constitution and the law and also against the will of the people, for example: what happened in what is called disputed areas such as Sinjar, the Nineveh plain and others, where life in these areas only deteriorates tragically due to the political will of different people in power and fighting for this land in Iraq, which started to indicate to intentions that would not serve the residents of these lands .. while they become victims of these false policies with nothing to protect them. Therefore, Iraqi must use the help of an international expertise to reach no only security but also national reconciliation which is a must … without international support to secure the land after expelling ISIS terrorists, the residents of these territories cannot go back and the influx of emigration would continue among minorities and the majorities as well, citizens do not trust what is being planned currently .. the most basic right of a citizen if to ask for security and safety. The weakness of the governmental performance in this regards makes it the government’s duty to ask for help from the international community to support the Iraqi security forces with training and equipment, also to back them up with international military forces that could help Iraq restore and recreate the broken trust between victims of a Genocide and the official authorities …
