Assassination of YOUSSEF KHORSHID ORANKAY, a Turkmen judge in Mosul

It is with great sadness that we commemorate the anniversary of the killing of our cousin, Youssef Khorshid Orankay, six years ago.

On 22nd December 2003 our cousin Youssef, who was an investigating judge in Mosul, was shot several times by 'unknown gunmen' as he left his office and was walking home.

Youssef was born in Kerkuk in 1947, he was married and had 6 children, 2 girls and 4 boys. He was an Iraqi patriot and a caring husband and father.

The criminals who carried out his assassination have not been found.
