Mazen Hamada, 43 years old, from the city of Deir ez-Zor. He has been a Syrian refugee in the Netherlands for years. He worked in Syria for the French oil exploration company “Schmirger” in Deir ez-Zor province as a technician. He was a contributor to the procedures to prosecute the Assad regime, and appeared in the media talking about Torture in the regime's prisons⬇️
Mazen has been arrested three times since the beginning of the Syrian revolution. The first arrest lasted for a week on April 24, 2011, at the hands of State Security in Deir ez-Zor. The second arrest took place on December 29, 2011, by the same branch, during his return from Damascus, at the military checkpoints at the entrance to the city of Deir ez-Zor. It lasted about two weeks, but the third detention was the longest, as Air Force Intelligence officers arrested him in central Damascus until 2014.⬇️
Mazen Hamadeh provided many testimonies about the brutal torture and torture methods used by the Syrian regime on its opponents, which we will mention in detail. He said about the circumstances of his third detention in the Air Force Intelligence branch... these are some of them ⬇️
"A child is then roasted by Assad guards"
There are many methods of torture that Mazen Hamada was subjected to during his detention at the hands of Assad’s jailers. We will mention some of them
1_ Suspension from hands
Although Mazen Hamada was a peaceful oppositionist and did not carry a weapon, he was subjected to the most severe types of torture:
2- Torture by targeting genital organs.
3- Impalement: This is done by inserting sharp objects into the anus of the detainee
4-Crushing the back and front ribs⬇️
He was also exposed to "the use of hot oil - boiling water - and extinguishing cigarettes on the bodies of detainees."
After his release, Mazen Al-Hamada was still wanted by Syrian Regime intelligence. Therefore, he decided to leave Syria, and in his last days he was suffering from a financial and psychological crisis, and it seems that he was contacted by people from the Syrian embassy, ​​which is close to the Assad regime.
He was lured to return to Syria with promises of releasing detainees (and according to some reports, they threatened to torture his family if he returned to Syria).
Hamada went to Berlin, where he obtained a passport and a visa from the embassy. Upon his arrival at Damascus airport, the security services of the regime arrested Hamada, and the last call was between Mazen and his nephew residing in Germany, and he said to him, “Pray for me.”

Mazen Hamadeh's purpose in exposing the Assad regime and its brutal torture methods was to bring those who tortured and oppressed him to the International Criminal Court.
Mazen Hamadeh was an educated, democratic national oppositionist
Mazen Hamadeh’s dream was to see a free, democratic Syria for all Syrians, dominated by love, peace and security...but he left without seeing that, unfortunately..
Mazen Hamada has become a global icon of swords, courage, and sacrifice for many writers and authors
Finally... Mazen Hamadeh passed away and his dream of a free Syria was not achieved... but we will follow in their footsteps and remain in the covenant...
#FreeSyria 💚
