The Free Syrian Army has established a prison in Aleppo’s countryside to hold more than 200 prisoners. Among them there are Military Officers, soldiers, and “shabiha” [regime militia members] caught during battles, as well as other criminals.

The officials in charge of this prison say they seek to convey the values of the revolution to the prisoners through periodical awareness lessons, in addition to allocating a special room for public trials to be carried out according to approval legal practices.
