Jan Kizilhan has helped Yazidi female victims from Iraq to start a new life

Jan Kizilhan has helped bring over a thousand Yazidi females from Iraq to start a new life. How does he decide who should stay and who should go?

Zeinab Badawi speaks to psychologist Jan Kizilhan who has helped bring over a thousand Yazidi females from camps in Iraq to Germany to start a new life. The so-called Islamic State may be coming under pressure in both Syria and Iraq but still accounts emerge of atrocities carried out by them. The minority Yazidi community has been amongst one of the most persecuted groups of people; living mostly in northern Iraq, they have been killed, forced to convert to Islam and the women and girls have been held in sexual slavery. How does he decide who should stay and who should go?
