Halmat Goran has in recent years lived at a secret address after threats Mullah Krekar was convicted in 2012.
Goran believes Krekar has repeated and sharpened threats against him in NRK interview. He does not deny that he is afraid.
– Krekar says he has 600 followers awaiting orders from him to go to IS-controlled areas. For these 600 followers living in Europe, it is easier to go to Norway. Therefore I should be afraid, says Goran TV 2.
– What do you think that you have to live in hiding?
– It is our duty to work for that we should have a society where it threatens, it is terrorist, running freely, while the one who has been threatened, are imprisoned in their own home.
Jailed for threats
Krekar was on Friday remanded for four weeks because of threats he made in NRK interview Wednesday. During the remand hearing argued defends Brynjar Meling that Krekar was convicted of the same threats in 2012 and that it would therefore involve a double hit to imprison him again for this.
“The court finds that although statements have roughly the same content and reality, they are now repeated several years later and is therefore to be regarded as new criminal offenses. Solicitation of murder or threat of murder is not punishable even if the corresponding threat has been put forward earlier “, writes Judge Finn Haugen ruling.
– Kurdish tradition
Under NRK interviewed said Krekar that he would send a gift if someone kills Halmat Goran. In the hearing explained Krekar what he supposedly meant by the statement:
– I have said that if he is killed, then they get a gift. There is a Kurdish tradition to give a gift when you are happy. For example if you have a child, or your son get into university. If someone gives me this message, so they deserve a gift, said Krekar.
