Mahmut Şahin, Vice President for Human Rights and Legal Affairs of HÜDA PAR, has condemned the extradition of three Uzbek citizens to the United Arab Emirates (UAE), describing the UAE as an "outpost" of the Israeli regime.
Şahin expressed concerns that the extradited individuals are at risk of severe torture and death, and noting that the process violated international agreements.
In a statement on X, Şahin highlighted that the three Uzbek citizens, who were involved in the murder of Rabbi Tzvi Kogan, a senior officer of the Chabad organization, in Dubai, were swiftly apprehended in Istanbul and extradited to the UAE. He criticized the Chabad organization for its role in the massacres in Palestine and pointed out that its political representative is Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu.
Şahin emphasized that despite the known dangers faced by the Uzbek citizens, the extradition was carried out rapidly and against international agreements. He questioned whether the Turkish National Intelligence Organization (MIT) has shown the same level of sensitivity towards Zionist individuals residing in Türkiye, who have reportedly participated in the genocide in Gaza and openly shared their involvement on social media.
Şahin's remarks have sparked a debate on the adherence to international legal standards and the protection of human rights in extradition processes. He called for greater scrutiny and accountability in handling such sensitive cases, particularly when there are risks of torture and extrajudicial actions.
The extradition has raised concerns among human rights advocates and legal experts, who argue that international agreements must be upheld to ensure the safety and rights of individuals facing extradition. The case continues to draw attention to the broader issues of international justice and the treatment of individuals accused of serious crimes. (ILKHA)
