Poetic Obituaries: Nadim [Yousif] had published four books

of poetry in Kurdish and Arabic, and was busy with his writing in the Netherlands.

"His injures never healed. He had to be treated continually," said a close friend of Nadim who wished to remain anonymous. "The Ba'athists didn't let him live and killed him."

Nadim's friend added that, immediately following his death there was a lot of speculation about the murder among the Kurdish community in the Netherland.
