AGPS has called upon the Syrian regime to release all Palestinian refugees forcibly-disappeared in the country and secretly held behind its prison bars.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Syrian regime should live up to its promises recently made in the amnesty issued by the country’s president Bashar AlAsad to people convicted on terrorism charges before 30 April 2022. The amnesty excludes acts that have led to killings or kidnappings, and those against whom there are civil personal claims.<\/span><\/p>\n

Only 14 Palestinian refugees, including four women, have been released from the time the pardon has entered into force.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thousands of Palestinians and Syrians have been jailed on terror charges for peaceful opposition to Assad’s government since the 2011 Arab Spring protests and subsequent war.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Prisoners’ Council said the regime claimed 2,500 people would be included in the amnesty. However, no more than a few hundreds have been released so far.<\/span><\/p>\n

The releases come after the Guardian revealed last week that in 2013 military security agents executed about 42 people by pushing them into a hole, shooting them and then burning them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thousands of Syrians were discovered killed under torture when a defector leaked nearly 50,000 photographs in 2014, showing the bodies of some 7,000 detainees mutilated by torture.<\/span><\/p>\n

Over 1,700 Palestinian refugees are believed to be languishing in Syria’s prisons, many of them have spent nearly a decade in prison while scores of others died under torture behind prison bars.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
