Several friends have identified relatives. It’s our turn to help. Despite foreign media blackout. Syria Torture
March 11, 2015 · by rosealhomsi
"Several people I know have identified loved ones. I still have not managed to open the many photos of starved, bloody, tortured and strangled bodies to see if I know any. Why hasn’t the British media picked this story? Because it doesn't involve ISIS. It is by the Assad regime. A defector leaked pictures of tens of thousands of dead bodies under torture. Our job at least: help identify them so their families can finally be at peace and know where their sons or husbands or brothers or fathers are in heaven inshallah."

Caesar smuggled the photos out of Syria on flash drives. The photos were brought to the U.S. last July with the help of the Coalition for a Democratic Syria.

“Anyone who has seen the images will never forget them,” U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said last week in a speech to the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva. “It defies anybody’s sense of humanity.”

The photos show men, women, and children tortured and starved to death. Caesartestified to Congress, in disguise, saying he witnessed a “genocidal massacre.”

Syria Feature: Eulogy for a Jordanian Taxi Driver — One of Assad’s 1000s of Torture Victims
As the 11,000 photos of victims killed in Syria’s prisons — brought out by a military photographer in January 2014 — are circulated, families and friends are beginning to identify those whom they knew.
Syrian journalist Mousa Alomar writes a tribute to one of the slain, Jordanian cab driver Shadi al-Hassan:
They wrote “9151″ on his forehead!
There are no tears for him, as he wasn’t a pilot [Mu'az al-Kasasbeh, burnt alive by the Islamic State in early February]. He was just a taxi driver between Amman and Damascus.
Two years ago, Assad’s mukhabarat (intelligence services) abducted him from al-Soumarriyah Station with his white Camry (with Jordanian plates), which he used to support his three children.
His family were then shocked, regrettably, to find a picture of him tortured to death as part of the scandal of the age. There will be no reaction to his death by torture. They didn’t film it, it wasn’t at the hands of extremists — just monsters — and his name wasn’t Mu’az.
May God grant patience to [his] mother’s heart.

First Caesar photo was published that allowed activists to geolocate 'Hospital 601' facility only 500 Meters from Assad’s Presidential Palace! There is a good chance that the corpses were visible looking out of Assad's window. Additionally, the newly published photos show tortured women, elderly people and even youngsters among Assad regimes' torture victims but it's too graphic to put on this site.
You can see mount Qasioun with its antennas in the background.

Professor Dr. Muhammad Naddaf from Damascus University was identified amongst Syrian torture victims

Hamza Khatib from Daraa has been found among the 'Caesar' photos of torture victims.
Hamza had been among 51 protesters detained on April 29, 2011 by Airforce Intelligence, which a number of detainees have reported as using brutal torture. Hamza's body was returned to his family on Tuesday 24th May, 2011, having been badly bruised, along with burn marks, three gunshot wounds, and severed genitals. It was the mutilation and death in custody of a 13-year-old child in the beginning of the Syrian Revolution that sparked widespread protests in Syria. Hamza’s death was a turning point in the Syria revolution, where protesters started demanding to overthrow the regime, instead of just calling for justice and dignity.
The child had spent nearly a month in the custody of Syrian security in 2011, and when they finally returned his corpse it bore the scars of brutal torture: Lacerations, bruises and burns to his feet, elbows, face and knees, consistent with the use of electric shock devices and of being whipped with cable, both techniques of torture documented by Human Rights Watch as being used in Syrian prisons during the bloody three-month crackdown on protesters.
Hamza's eyes were swollen and black and there were identical bullet wounds where he had apparently been shot through both arms, the bullets tearing a hole in his sides and lodging in his belly.
Responding to the video of Hamza's mutilated body, Syria's only private TV station, the pro-regime Al Dunia, aired an interview with a Government forensic doctor from Damascus' Tishreen Military Hospital.
Dr. Akram al-Shaar, who claimed to have supervised the autopsy of Hamza in Tishreen, said he found no signs of torture, claiming the marks on Hamza's body had been caused by natural decomposition.
Hamza's father, Ali al-Khateeb, wanted to press charges against the army and security forces, said Hamza's cousin. Instead, Ali and his wife were visited by the secret police and threatened. "They said: 'Enough of what has happened because of you already. You know what would happen if we heard you had spoken to the media,'" said Hamza's mother.
Hamza's father was later detained after the secret police demanded he tell state media that Hamza was killed by armed Salafists, Sunni Muslim extremists, which the regime has claimed are driving the popular uprising.

yeah you the think the government would document this, just to have it ready for the ICC and / or for the UNSC...
Alasad doesn't have to step down, just because couple of people asked for it, it doesn't mean it has to happen... if this is the case, then every nation's leader would have to step down on daily bases, because there will always be an opposition... I$I$ was raised by the west and it is puppet, the gcc terrorists armed them, and even trained them... that's how I$I$ got its power, tell me about 2010 I$I$ beheading... that's right there was none, because F$A terrorists didn't exist...
Free and fair elections are not held everyday, you have no wish to see that happen in Syria and that's why you have twisted the idea of a free an d fair election that could have been arranged.

54 Photos of Syria Mass Torture
2015-04-12
In cooperation with the Syrian Association for the Missing and Prisoners of Conscience, Zaman al-Wasl has published 54 photos of mass torture for Syrian detainees that were a part of photos smuggled out of Syria by a former Syrian military police photographer mid 2013.
The atrocious photos of mass torture had been taken between 2011 and mid 2013 in the well-known 601 military hospital in Mezzah neighborhood of Damascus.
In mid 2013, 55,000 photos smuggled out of Syria by a former Syrian military police photographer gave a glimpse of some of the abuses being committed in Syrian jails.
The digital images of 11,000 dead detainees showed emaciated bodies and the defector, identified only as Ceasar, described seeing corpses with "deep wounds and burns and strangulations.
More than 220,000 people have been killed in Syria since the revolt against Bashar al-Assad began in March 2011, the United Nations says.
Zaman al-Wasl deliberately insists to show victims' faces, so their families and relatives can recognize them.
