Palestinian refugee Salim Mahmoud Bahloul has been enduring a mysterious fate in Syria’s state-run penal complexes for the eight-consecutive year.
Salim, in his 20s, was kidnapped by Syrian security forces on October 12, 2012 from Bisan Clinic. He is a native of Haifa city, in Palestinian territories occupied by Israel in 1948 (present-day Israel).
AGPS documented the secret detention of 1,768 Palestinian refugees in Syria’s state-run prisons, among them 108 women.
AGPS believes that the arbitrary internment and enforced disappearance of Palestinian refugees in war-torn Syria amount to war crimes.
AGPS continues to urge the Syrian government to disclose the fate of scores of Palestinians forcibly disappeared in state-run dungeons, release the bodies of those tortured to death, seriously work on halting harsh torture tactics, launch fact-finding probes into crimes of torture, and to bring those involved in such crimes before courts.
