The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights received confirmed information that the authorities of the regime removed the President of the Security Committee in Homs after the sit-in, which is still taking place in al Zahra neighborhood in the city of Homs, the home to the majority of Alawite citizens, amid continued claims by the protesters and the powerful persons from the city of Homs to remove Talal al-Barazi the governor of Homs, but the close relationship between Talal al-Barazi and the General Bassam Merhej the Manager of the security office at the presidential palace, and with Luna al-Shebel the head of the press office at the of the Syrian regime, prevented that and kept him in his position.
