ARK News… Anti-Assad regime protests renewed in Suwayda, for the 13th day in a row, calling for the implementation of international resolutions related to the political transition in Syria and demanding the release of detainees from prisons.

A media source stated that dozens of delegations from the cities and towns of the governorate arrived at Al-Karama Square, to demand a state of freedom, democracy and justice, and to express categorical rejection of the continuation of the Assad regime, which destroyed and devastated the country.

He said that the demonstrators continued the campaign to remove images and slogans of the regime spread in the circles and party centers, to emphasize that the ruling family has become a thing of the past, while at the same time saluting the cities and towns that are witnessing a revolutionary movement against the regime.

In a related context, Al-Rased Network reported that the employees arrived, on Thursday, at the Palace of Justice, and suddenly everyone left their offices, so that the palace was closed again and citizens’ affairs were disrupted without any justifications, as the auditors were taken out a short while ago and the palace door was closed again.

It confirmed that the Public Prosecutor in Suwayda, Judge Fouad Salloum, continues to obstruct the work of the Judicial Palace in a strange way, and quoted lawyers saying that yesterday witnessed an absence of judges, while some employees affiliated with “Salloum” were telling auditors that the reason for their non-working hours was to prevent them from working. The protesters accepted, but the lawyers confirmed that there were no protesters at the door of the Palace of Justice.

Al-Rased stressed that, on the contrary, a worker at the Palace of Justice confirmed that a faction came two days ago on the orders of Rashid Salloum, the brother of the Attorney General, under the pretext of intending to protect the Palace, but then left due to the absence of any of the protesters.

A source from inside the Palace of Justice said: “Today also no judges attended, except for the sectarian judge who said that he was on his way to the palace, but it was closed before his arrival, so the question remains: What is the benefit of closing the Palace of Justice and why this insistence on the part of the Attorney General on giving the impression that he is being subjected to harassment, knowing that The lawyers’ testimonies confirm that there is nothing that affects the progress of work.”
