The truth about the Syrian under the blanket turned out to be very different.

After the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad's regime in Syria, it was announced that all prisoners in the prisons were released. Following this development, the CNN International team, which went to the region, shared images of a prisoner found under a blanket in an evacuated prison with the headline "Saw the light of day after months."

THE TRUTH TURNED OUT TO BE VERY DIFFERENT

While the images related to the incident made headlines around the world, the clean clothing, healthy appearance, and demeanor of the individual found drew attention. As questions increased, a research organization in Syria revealed that the truth was very different from what CNN reported based on the name and information provided by the individual.

HE WAS BASHAR AL-ASSAD'S LIEUTENANT

According to this; the individual who claimed his name was Adel Gharbal yielded no results in searches. As a result of investigations, it was determined that the individual's real name was Mohammad Salama. It was revealed that Salama, known as "Abu Hamza," was a lieutenant in the Syrian Air Force Intelligence.

HE WAS ARRESTED IN A DISPUTE OVER SHARING LOOT

According to the information obtained; it was revealed that Mohammad Salama managed several security checkpoints in Homs and was involved in theft and robbery activities. It was determined that Salama, who was imprisoned about a month ago, was detained due to a dispute over sharing loot with his superiors...

HE HAS THE BLOOD OF MANY INNOCENT CIVILIANS ON HIS HANDS

According to the research findings; Mohammad Salama participated in military operations on many fronts in Homs in 2014 and killed civilians. Not stopping there, Salama detained many young people in the city for no reason or on fabricated charges and subjected them to torture. While Abu Hamza, who changed his number to erase his past and closed his social media accounts, has not yet been heard from regarding his fate, it remains a topic of debate whether CNN fell into this situation knowingly or was played by Hamza.
