Women’s prisons
There are 2 women’s prisons in the city of Serekani. One prison belongs to the Civil Discipline (Civil Prison) and the other one belongs to the Military Discipline. Civil Discipline Prison is located behind Roj Hospital and Military Discipline Prison in Hawaran neighborhood.
Civil Discipline Prison, also known as Shurtaya Madeni: This prison is run by a gangster named Abu Saddam, whose real name is Mahmoud Al-Salih. Abu Sadam is from Deir Ezor.
Military Disciplinary Prison: The prison is run by Abu Umar, who is a native of Idlib. The prison is directly related to MIT.
Abu Umar and Abu Saddam
Abu Umar and Abu Sadam belong to MIT, they have been in charge since 2016 when the Turkish state attacked Jarablus. In addition, MIT has raised the levels of those people in gangs and the photos you see also highlight this fact. These two gangs are the right hand of the Turkish state, they were present in the attacks from Jarablus to Afrin, Gire Spî and Serekani and committed many crimes against the people of the region.
Number of prisoners
Currently, there are 40 women prisoners in both prisons. 15 women are in Dispilina Lashkeri prison who have been arrested on terrorism charges. The punishment of those women extends from 3 years to 20 years and some of them are sentenced, that is, they will be in prison for the rest of their lives. 11 of those women are from the people of Serekani and its rural areas, who did not leave their village and town during the attacks and took the principle of resistance. 4 other women were arrested when they tried to smuggle themselves out of the region into the occupied capital.
25 other prisoners are in Civil Prison. These women were also arrested when they wanted to cross the capital and from there to Turkey and leave for Europe.
Of those 25 women, 5 of them are Kurdish women, from the city of Qamishlo and its countryside.
37 prisoners were transferred to Turkish prisons
In addition to those 40 prisoners, there were 37 others. Four months ago, 37 other imprisoned women were transferred to Turkish prisons after it was not known how many years each of them was sentenced to. These 37 women were in the Military Discipline prison before being transferred to Turkish prisons.
They threatened the families of the prisoners and wanted to make them their spies
The MİT of the prisons are directly connected to it, they keep the prisoners in their custody without committing a crime, and of course they have many goals after this. One of these goals is to demand ransom from their families, and the other is to force the families to spy. Through the prisoners, they pressure their families in the Self-Government areas to become spies for the Turkish state and start spying against their power and administration.
Even when those women are released with ransoms, MİT organizes them and sends them as spies to the regions of the Autonomous Administration.
Sometimes, after one of the brothers or members of that family becomes an agent and starts working as an agent, he sends coordinates, photos and documents about the power and administration of this region to the Turkish state, and the prisoners are released. According to our private sources, the release will not happen immediately, after MIT confirms the spy who has been their partner for two months, the prisoners will be released.
Civil Discipline prison violations
When gangs and MİT lose hope from the prisoners because no one cares about the prisoners and the gangs don’t get money and the Turks can’t develop espionage, they kill them. Their corpses are thrown on the border between Turkey and Syria. In order to remove the doubt and say that we did not kill them, they were shot and killed by the Turkish soldiers guarding the border when they tried to cross into Turkey.
Killing women
In the last three months, 3 women were shot and killed in the village of Eziziyê, which belongs to Serêkaniyê, which is on the border of North Kurdistan. When the residents of that place saw the women, there were traces of severe torture on their faces and bodies.
According to our private sources, the witnesses of the incident confirmed that many people assaulted those women. But the Turkish soldiers and the gangs did not allow anyone to take pictures of them so that their crimes would not be revealed and remain undocumented. Unfortunately, no one knew who those women were, what they were and where they were from.
Women are subjected to torture
After the Turkish soldiers and their mercenaries interrogate the women, they torture them. Because of their torture, women suffer a lot both physically and mentally. But there is also this, they don’t allow those women to be treated in the hospital so that the effects of torture cannot be seen on their faces and bodies. Doctors are not allowed to visit the prisoners and treat their wounds. The women who are kept in these prisons under different charges are subjected to many tortures.
