The release of the young Kurdish woman, Rola Hamdo

ARK News… The Civil Police released the young Kurdish woman, Rola Hamdo, several days after her arrest at a military checkpoint in the city of Izaz.

Rola Hamdo (born in 1983) was arrested from the Rajo district of Afrin in Syrian Kurdistan, on February 9, while passing through a checkpoint in the city of Azaz in the northern countryside of Aleppo.

The Syrian Network for Human Rights reported that “the young woman Rola Hamdo, who works for the Buhar Humanitarian Organization, was arrested on charges of dealing with the Syrian Democratic Forces, and was taken to an unknown destination.”

The network noted, “Her phone was confiscated and she was prevented from communicating with her family. We fear that she will be subjected to torture and become among the forcibly disappeared, like 85% of all detainees.”

It called for "compensating the victims and their families financially and morally, stopping all arbitrary detentions that aim to spread terror among members of society, blackmailing families, and revealing the fate of thousands of forcibly disappeared people held by all opposition factions/national army forces."
