A number of Palestinian refugees, who were released by Syrian regime, confirmed to the AGPS correspondent, that they were arrested by Syrian security agents because they are from the family of a wanted person for the regime, or instead of him, while others said that they were arrested for the similarity of their names with wanted by the Syrian security services.
According to them, who refused to mention their names fearing the Syrian regime, they have been subjected to all forms of torture, moving between several security branches. Meanwhile, torture signs were clear on a hand of one of them after being tied with electricity wires around his wrists, in addition to the signs of beatings and torture on his body.
After assuring that he is not the wanted person and has no relation with his, he will be released, and provided with a paper of innocence; however, some of them were arrested for the second time for the similarity of names.
Activists confirmed that many Palestinian refugees have been arrested by the Syrian regime or his affiliated groups without reasons; while hundreds of them died due to torture or similarity of names or of being a relative for a wanted person.
The regime's checkpoints became a nightmare that haunts young Palestinians after being displaced from the camp for fear of arrest and being enforced to join the "compulsory military service," in addition to campaigns of arrests carried out by Syrian security services against the Palestinian youth from their homes.
The AGPS documented the names of 1090 Palestinians who are detained in the prisons of the Syrian regime, while the Syrian security is still reticent about their fate.
