A man named as Bahri Sabri Baski, from Jandreis town which is adminstratively a part of Afrin city in the northern suburbs of Aleppo governorate, was arrested on October 2, 2020, by the Syrian National Army personnel and taken to an undisclosed location.
SNHR notes that no member of Bahri’s family was informed of his arrest, with the phone being confiscated, preventing him from contacting his family. SNHR fears that he will be subjected to torture and ultimately classified as forcibly ‘disappeared’ like approximately 85 percent of the individuals detained.
SNHR notes that about 3,244 Syrian citizens are still detained or forcibly disappeared in the Armed Opposition’s detention centers, constituting a grave threat to their wellbeing given the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic.
