The story of the Palestinian Syrian refugee “Tariq Ouda” is one of hundreds stories suffered by the Palestinian refugee due to the war in Syria. Tariq had to escape to the four corners of the earth in search of safety and security similarly as to the other Palestinian refugees.
Thailand was his destination and station where he found stability and security; he lived there for three years and seven months without any problems, only those related to housing and accommodation, but he embraced this temporary life until he faced the problem of his passport that was washed in the washing machine by mistake.
However, he went to the Syrian consulate in Thailand in order to grant a new travel document, but the Syrian consul refused as he remained without a document proving his personal identity, which would expose him to the prosecution and deportation, especially for the fact that he has no “Visa” for about two years and a half.
 Tariq decided to leave Thailand and travel illegally with a false passport; his trip started through Thailand, Cambodia, and Indonesia that arrived in Sri Lanka Colombo, as he was detained by airport security in transit.
In a letter received by the AGPS, Tariq confirmed the news of his detention for five days in Sri Lanka airport without food or water or bathroom, and pointed out that he does not know when he will be released. He said: “Whenever I ask them about the date of my release, they tell me a new story, the last thing I knew that they will deport me to Jakarta, “he added, if I already was deported to that country, I certainly would go to prison because I entered Jakarta with false passport.
Accordingly, the Palestinian refugee “Tariq Ouda” launched a distress call and an appeal to the Palestinian Liberation Organization, the human rights organizations, and the international organizations to intervene to solve his problem and to get him out of his crisis.
