Three more Kurdish students arrested

According to Media Institute of West Kurdistan Society, on 12 February 2010 Abdullah Mohammed Mesko was arrested.  He is a law student at the Faculty of Law and Political Science at the Beirut Arab University, but he was arrested in Syria.

Intelligence security made arrests in al-Raqqa between 27 – 29 April 2010:

• the student Darwish Mohamed Misseh, a student in the Faculty of Education. He was arrested in his student accommodation.
• Ibrahim Mustafa, a student was also arrested in al-Raqqa after his home was raided and his family threatened if they did not surrender him.

These arrests, and those previously reported are evidence that there is a systematic attack on the Kurdish people underway by the Syrian authorities, that has intensified during April 2010.  Many people have been detained and subjected to torture during their detention, and this includes those who are wounded.
