Faisal Ahmad al Juma, born in 1967, from M’ar Shimsha village in the eastern suburbs of Idlib governorate, who was the speaker and Imam at a mosque in Darkoush town in the western suburbs of Idlib governorate, was arrested by Hay’at Tahrir al Sham personnel on April 27, 2019 in Darkoush town, over accusations of working with Syrian regime forces. He was taken to the HTS’s al Zanbaqi Prison in the town, with his family managing to visit him for the last time on December 6, 2021 at a police station in the town. On February 16, 2022, Hay’at Tahrir al Sham notified his family that he had passed away on February 2, 2022 inside a detention center, though the group failed to release his body to his family. SNHR received information confirming that he was in bad health when arrested as he suffered from paralysis in his left foot, making it probable that he died due to lack of healthcare inside the HTS detention center.
SNHR confirms that 2287 Syrians are still under arrest or forcibly disappeared inside Hay’at Tahrir al Sham’s detention centers, further noting that 28 Syrians have died due to torture inside Hay’at Tahrir al Sham’s detention centers.
