This is Abdullah, my cousin, who was arbitrarily detained in 2016 by the ousted Syrian regime at the age of 18 on suspicion of participating in the revolution. Since then, we’ve heard nothing about him except that he is held in the notorious #Saydnaya prison. He has yet to be found among those released in the past two days.
His mother watches anxiously as efforts continue to unlock the vaults of Saydnaya and release more prisoners. Abdullah’s father was assassinated in Idlib, yet his mother insisted on staying alone in Homs while the rest of her family, including her parents, left the country. She told me, “I want to stay so that when Abdullah comes back, there will be someone at home to open the door for him.”
With each passing moment, the hope of finding him alive diminishes. But we cling to that faint hope. #Syria
