563 Palestinians tortured to death in Syrian regime jails

Wednesday 19-December-2018

Action Group for Palestinians of Syria on Wednesday said that at least 563 Palestinian refugees have died under torture in the Syrian regime jails.

The Group said that there are 1712 Palestinians currently held in Syrian jails noting that most families remain silent on the arrest of their sons fearing harassment by the Syrian security forces.

It added that Palestinian detainees in the Syrian regime jails are subjected to all forms of torture in public and secret detention centers.

Action Group has documented the arrest of 1680 Palestinian refugees including 106 women while it expects that there are at least 1712 Palestinians in the regime’s prisons in view of the lack of information about some detainees’ fate and place of detention.
