The Syrian Human Rights Committee has condemned the unfair measurement taken by the Syrian authorities by deporting unjustifiably and arbitrarily Dr. Ghazi Alayyan from Syria.

The Media spokesperson of SHRC said that the expel of Mr. Alayyan has no reason other than taking revenge from his wife Dr. Fidaa Akram al-Horani who had been cast in prison a couple of months ago. The spokesperson added that allegations of the Syrian authorities in adopting Arab fraternity as well as the issues of the Palestinian refugees who have been deprived from their original homeland can be simply refuted under such circumstances when the Syrian authorities resort to vile and ignoble measurements to wreck opponents and have revenge on the democratic opposition.
 
The spokesperson concluded his comment by stating that such measurements are not new to the Syrian authorities who have been violating the rights of the Syrian people in freedom and peaceful life. On the contrary they converted the life of the Syrian people into unbearable hell. The spokesperson demanded that detainees of Damascus declaration should be released immediately and that all punitive measurements against their families should be stopped.
