A Kolbar was killed in Sardasht while another one was wounded at the border of Khoy after being shot by military forces during the past few days.

Kurdistan Human Rights Network (KHRN) has obtained information that law enforcement forces have targeted a group of Kolbars in “Dolebi” border area of Sardasht on July 14, 2019. As a result, a kolbar “Bryaji (Mohammad) Ibrahimzadeh“ has been killed.

He was initially shot in his leg but lost his life at the hospital due to a delay in being transferred to the hospital and severe bleeding.

Nasser Ibrahimzadeh, brother of this kolbar, was shot and killed by the security forces of Sardasht in “Kapran” on the pretext of carrying “unauthorised cargo” last year.
