SOUTH LONDON PRESS: Taban’s achievement to be set in stone

Taban Shoresh is a child genocide survivor who escaped Iraq after her father was poisoned by Saddam Hussein’s spies. In 1986 she and her family were held in prison for two weeks where she could hear the screams of Kurds being tortured. Saddam nicknamed the genocide ‘Anfal’ – after the triumph of some of the first Muslims over pagans in 624AD. It was killing on an industrial scale, using chemical weapons, mass graves and firing squads.
