In a recent development, our sources reported that Turkish authorities in the Jindires subdistrict have initiated a campaign of arrests targeting the youths in the village of Jalameh. The charges are pre-fabricated and pertain to alleged dealings with the previous Autonomous Administration in the occupied region of Afrin. This crackdown even extends to youths who were forcibly displaced from Turkish territory.
Details reveal that on June 24, 2023, the military police militia in Jindires arrested four citizens: Mohammad Mustafa Banfasha (30 years old), Abdul Rahman Hussein Alako (35 years old), Khaled Rasoul Kal Khalo (28 years old), and Jumaa Mustafa Awan (27 years old). They are accused of having connections with the previous Autonomous Administration in Afrin.
According to sources, Abdul Rahman Alako and Khaled Rasoul Khalo were released after paying fines, while Mohammad Banfasha and Jumaa Awan remain in detention.
