Syria: French people suspected of torture in a Daesh prison

In the basement of a hospital in Aleppo, transformed into a prison, a member of Daesh hits several detainees with a stick. There are about ten of them in the hallway, their hands tied to the pipes and blindfolded, probably for hours. Ihe photos are taken from video surveillance dating from 2013, when the hospital was a center of torture. These images would have been recovered by an NGO, then by French justice. Investigators say they prove the involvement of three French jihadists in violence against prisoners.

A suspect identified

The police of the DGSIthe interior intelligence, are convinced to have identified Abdelmalek Tanemarrested in 2014 on his return from Syria, then sentenced to 9 years in prison in France. He is suspected of having been the jailer of the four French hostages released in 2014. They too were brutalized in the basement of the hospital, although they do not appear on the tapes.
