Many details about the oppression of the 61-year Baath dictatorship are emerging with the collapse of the Assad regime in Syria. Among those who suffered greatly are Turkish citizens.

FREEDOM AFTER 21 YEARS

Mehmet Ertürk, a Turkish citizen who was caught by the Assad regime's police for smuggling 21 years ago, was imprisoned in the regime's jails. Ertürk regained his freedom almost a quarter of a century later, after the regime's collapse.

DISTRIBUTED A BUNDLE OF MONEY

Upon returning to Turkey, Mehmet Ertürk was welcomed with drums and zurna in the Karkamış district of Gaziantep. It was noteworthy that he distributed a bundle of Syrian pounds he took out of his pocket to the crowd surrounding him at that moment.
