Two separate murders | Civilian shot dead by thefts and uncertainty surrounds the death of another in Al-Qamishli

Reliable sources have told SOHR that a civilian was shot dead by thefts who attempted to break into his house in Al-Qamishli city. It is worth noting that the victim was a father of six children.

 

On the other hand, a civilian was found dead in his house in Barku Layla village in Al-Qamishli countryside, while uncertainty has surrounded the circumstances of the murder.

 

This coincides with the escalating rate of crimes throughout Syrian geography.

 

On May 12, SOHR sources documented a new murder in SDF-controlled areas, where a civilian from Sarin town in Ain Al-Arab countryside (Kobani) shot his son dead with four gunshots following a family dispute. According to SOHR sources, the father prevented the residents to hospitalise his son until he was sure that the boy died, before he escaped.
