On the late afternoon of Friday 26th April, Kurdish police forces in the City of Raniye in the Northern city of Kurdistan was alerted by the hotel “Bethoween” about an incident. The police found Mr Afsaji’s strangled body and pronounced him dead at the scene. This tragedy happened in a time that the Finnish government was informed about Mr Afsaji’s deteriorating mental health. IFIR is very sad about the needless death of Mr Afsaji and sends his family our sincere condolences.
Our representatives and Mr Afsaji\u2019s family warned and informed the Finnish government several times. The Finnish health system registry also had medical records of Mr. Afsaji\u2019s mental health, and were fully aware of his condition. The Finnish government ignored ours and Mr. Afsaji\u2019s family\u2019s warnings, never taking his case seriously. As a result of this, the government’s ignorance cost Mr Afsaji his life.
If the government had taken the bare minimum responsibility of its citizens that suffer from mental health issues, Mr. Afsaji\u2019s death could have been avoided. The International Federation of Iraqi refugees condemns the ignorance of the Finnish government in Mr Afsaji\u2019s case which cost him his life and we are demanding a thorough investigation by the Finnish Government and Supreme Court of Finland to find out how his plea for help was ignored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
