H.E. Prof. Dr. Mahmud Erol KILIC, PUIC Secretary General expressed strong condemnation of the vicious criminal act perpetrated by the terrorist group, DAESH, against the Jordanian citizen Maaz Kasasbeh.

In this respect he sent a message of condolences to H.E. Atef Tarawnah, Speaker of the Jordanian House of Representatives. Following is the text of this message:
“We have been shocked by the detestable crime and the cowardly terrorist act which has been committed by the terrorist organization DAESH which resulted in the martyrdom of the hero Maaz Kasasbeh. We condemn, in the strongest terms, this vicious crime whose perpetrators have not heeded the inviolability of any religion or human being. This abominable action which has nothing to do with Islam or with its tolerant teachings can only be viewed with denunciation and condemnation from us and from the international community as a whole. It will certainly hasten the elimination of this cowardly terrorist group which spread terror and destruction on earth. Our tolerant religion, Islam is a religion of mercy, compassion and love, and our Islamic Nation shall stand united to confront anyone who dares to disregard or play with its inherited noble capabilities. Please, Excellency accepts our heart-felt condolences and convey this message to the family of the deceased and to the people and leaders of sisterly Jordan. ”
