Over 112,000 forcibly disappeared by Assad regime likely dead
|
[NEWARAB] At least 112,414 individuals who were forcibly disappeared by the Assad regime are most likely dead, according to the Syrian Network for Human Rights (SNHR).
The rights group says that despite the thousands of detainees being released following the fall of the regime, many are still missing and were probably killed by the regime.
The group said that of the 136,614 individuals it recorded as detained or forcibly disappeared in its database, only 24,000 have been released.
Speaking to Anadolu Agency, Fadel Abdul Ghany, chairman of the SNHR, said the individuals unaccounted for "were most likely killed".
He says that the people are still classified as ''forcibly disappeared'' since their bodies have not been returned to their families, and their fates are unknown.
SNHR says that an overwhelming majority of forcibly disappeared people either died from torture or brutal detention or were executed.
The group said that thousands of the disappeared were registered as dead from 2018 onwards without returning their bodies or properly informing their families of the details of their deaths.
Many of the victims were killed and buried in mass graves, some of which were uncovered following Assad's fall, without their families being informed.
''Only a few mass graves have been uncovered, and there are rumours of many more,'' Abdul Ghany said.
