Third batch in 33 days | Regime security services release nearly 20 detainees from Daraa

Reliable SOHR sources have reported that regime forces released 21 detainees from Daraa province this morning. The detainees had been taken to the hall of the governorate complex in Daraa city where they were released in presence of the chiefs of several security branches and groups of Al-Baath Party. It is worth noting that most of the recently-released people were not political prisoners, and most of them were arrested over various crimes after regime forces had captured Daraa province in 2018.

 

Regime security services had released two other batches of detainees from Daraa in November, where the first batch was released on November 14 when nearly 20 prisoners were released. The other batch comprised 25 prisoners who were released on November 23.
