On the eve of the Human Rights Day, marked annually on December 10, AGPS raises alarm bells over the serious violations, often amounting to war crimes, perpetrated against the Palestinian of Syria.
Since the group’s founding in 2012, AGPS monitored several cases of human rights infringements in beset Syria.
AGPS kept record of the death of 3,403 Palestinians due to war-related incidents in Syria. Shelling topped the list with 1,128 casualties. 818 refugees were fatally gunned down while 456 refugees, including 35 girls and women, were tortured to death in Syrian lock-ups.
Meanwhile, 1,134 Palestinians, including 80 female refugees, have been locked up in Syrian jails.
The detainees’ families have frequently appealed to the Syrian government forces to disclose the fate of their jailed relatives. However, most of their cries for help have gone unheeded.
The detainees have also been subjected to dire detention circumstances and harsh psycho-physical torture. Most of the prisoners have been bereaved of their right to a fair and public trial.
