Human rights activist confirms:
Trinis who fled Isis now in Iraqi detention camps
Over September 10 and 11, Van Esveld visited the detention site - located south of Mosul - and interviewed 27 foreign women, including the Trinidadians.
They didnt want to tell me their names or ages. But there were two adult sisters, one of whom had one young child. The other (sister) had three young children - and was pregnant- and there was the sisters mother, Van Esveld said.
Their father, who they said was age 53, was with them when they surrendered to Kurdish Peshmerga forces north of Tal Afar in late August.
Van Esveld said he was told the father was separated from the women.
They dont know what happened to him, he added.
Van Esveld said the sisters told him they had lived in Mosul for close to two years before fleeing to Tal Afar on February 2
