The Human Rights Organization in Afrin: Methods of robbery and collecting funds varied among the leaders of armed militias loyal to the Turkish occupation government, including building settlements, restoring sidewalks and shops, and organizing parks after seizing lands and imposing ransom and royalty and theft, plunder, robbery, armed robbery and investment in medical projects, “building medical centers” and converting their members from the term of the so-called “Free Syrian National Army” to mercenaries on the Turkish side in its regional conflict.
By a decision of the Turkish occupation government, the militia of Sultan Suleiman Shah al-Amshat, led by Muhammad al-Jassim, nicknamed Abu Amsha, pledged to complete the restoration work on the façade and roofs of (shaded) shops in the center of Shih town with red tiles in the Turkish style and forcing their owners to pay the financial expenses estimated at about 300 – 800 US dollars for each store according to the restoration area, noting that the number of stores within the plan is approximately 110 – 125 commercial stores, and that the works and services they carried out in each store do not exceed their cost of 150-200 US dollars.
Sources in Shiye two reported that the so-called Abu Amsha seized a plot of land owned by Othman Omar Bakr, nicknamed (Osman Omer), and part of the house of citizen Abdo Sido Ka’lo, which was destroyed as a result of the Turkish bombing on 03/07/2018 during the invasion of the town center to make it a public park estimated in size it is located on three dunums on the main road coming from the village of Aranda towards spring of Shiye Square (Nabaa Square).
They added that the so-called Abu Amsha, the commander of the so-called militia of Sultan Suleiman Shah Al-Amshat, seized seven shops located in the old bazaar yard near the primary school, in Shiye town owned by the late Abdo Aref Alloush, who passed away about six months ago with a stroke as a result of oppression and injustice, which is encountered, like the rest of the townspeople, at the hands of the “free” armed militias affiliated with the Syrian Interim Government and the Syrian National Coalition headed by Nasr al-Hariri, in order to turn them into warehouses for his commercial financier.
