Another Turkish driver was kidnapped in Iraq

The video explains that the ‘Abdülkadir Al-Gilani Brigade’ kidnapped Tahsin Top last Thursday on the Tikrit-Mosul road. The group threatened to behead the driver if his company does not withdraw from Iraq within 48 hours.

Top, who is surrounded by armed militants wearing masks, says in the video, "The US is our enemy and Iraq is our brother. Driver friends, do not come to Iraq, otherwise you would be in the same situation like me. You can make your living everywhere."

After the video was aired, Atahan Company, which employs Tashin Top, declared that they would cease all of their activities in Iraq.

Meanwhile, the family of Tevfik Alkan, who has been missing for 35 days in Iraq, hopes to hear something from Al Jazeera. Tevfik Alkan’s wife, Aysel Alkan, said that she was concerned for his husband’s life.

"The company that my husband works for wanted his photograph from us. They will send the picture to Al Jazeera television. The company said that [Al Jazeera] has helped solve many issues Iraq. So, we hope to hear something from them as well," expressed Alkan’s wife.
