Inside the Free Syrian Army Prison in Aleppo
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.
The Forgotten Ones in Syrian Jails for Decades

Aljazeera.net – Exclusive
Without lawyers or fair trials, and without knowing their destiny, political prisoners languished in Syrian jails for many years. About 1500 of them were deported from Saidnaya prison to other prisons last July; and yet the regime still denies their very existence.
The Syrian authorities misled the Arab observers and prevented them from meeting the prisoners during their visits to the jails. One a former prisoner was given a card claiming that he was sentenced to life imprisonment (25 years), although his detention period exceeded that, and the observers’ committee was not allowed to meet him. استمر في القراءة
A Night Tale – a true story
Michel Kilo1
8 October 2012
Suddenly, the door of my cell in the dungeon was open. It was around 3:00am. The security man ordered me to follow him.

He removed the blindfold off my eyes, and whispered to me: “I will come back an hour later to return you to your room” (in Syrian prisons, the solitary cell is called “Room”). He pointed out to an empty corner and said: “Sit there, and narrate a tale to this little/child boy.”
In that narrow place (2m x 2m), there was a woman in her thirties. The security man got out and closed the door, ordering me not to talk in a loud voice lest any of his colleagues would hear me, and then a disaster may occur which could see both of us sent to Tadmur [the most notorious political prison in Syria, located in the desert in the East of Syria]. استمر في القراءة
A Memory of A Year in the Purgatory: A Testimony about Prison and Journalistic Work
Amer Matar
25 April 2012
Purgatory, is the most proper expression to describe the world of the Syrian State Security branches.. to live death in a closed narrow space, between two worlds. Between these two worlds I lived death.
On 28 March 2011 Bashar Al-Assad was a few meters from my house, laughing, while I was being tortured in my bedroom and the jailers’ shoes were scattering my clothes and notebooks. استمر في القراءة
Eye Witness Accounts and Stories from within the Syrian Regime’s Prisons
Omar al Asaad
Dr Mohammad flips his new ID card, looks at this neighbour in the bed next to his bed and breaks out into a fit of laughter. The ID card which the detained doctor now holds in Adra prison includes a sentence that points out his crime: “weakening the national feelings!” He shares the same crime with Feras who is lying on the top bunk bed. The doctor ascertains that “this lad [Feras] is a simple naive guy, he isn’t crazy or mentally disabled but he does not fully comprehend what is happening around him. He even demonstrates speech problems and his facial features from a medical standpoint look abnormal.
