    2-\u00a0\u00a0 Air Force Command Prison.<\/p>

    3-\u00a0\u00a0 Information Branch Prison in the Abbasid area.<\/p>

    4-\u00a0\u00a0 Air Force Intelligence Directorate Prison in the Qassa’ area.<\/p>

    Our field team visited the Southern
    Region Branch of the Air Force Intelligence Directorate in Harasta, Damascus
    countryside, and we confirm that it is
    empty of detainees.<\/span><\/p>

    Regarding the information circulating
    about the existence of secret prisons belonging to the Air Force Intelligence
    Directorate, and based on the field inspection conducted by our team, we
    believe that there is no evidence indicating the existence of secret prisons in
    the following locations:<\/span><\/p>

    1-<\/span> \u00a0<\/span>We found no evidence to indicate the
    existence of a secret underground prison extending from the Air Force
    Intelligence Directorate building to below Liberation Square.<\/span><\/p>

    2-<\/span> \u00a0<\/span>We found no evidence to indicate the
    existence of a secret underground prison extending from the Aviation Authority
    building to Umayyad Square in Damascus.<\/span><\/p>

    3-<\/span> We found no evidence to
    indicate the existence of a secret underground tunnel extending from the
    Harasta branch to the Damascus-Homs international road.<\/span><\/p>

    ADMSP calls on media professionals
    and journalists to follow ethics of accuracy in reporting information about
    secret prisons, in order to preserve the safety of families and respect their
    feelings at these hard times. The association also calls on Syrian and
    international human rights organizations to immediately help conduct thorough
    inspections of prisons belonging to all of the prisons of the regime’s
    intelligence branches.<\/span><\/p>

    We would like to point out that during
    the past year, we collected and documented information from defectors and
    former employees of the Air Force Intelligence Directorate about the secret
    prisons at Mezzeh Military Airport, which were mentioned here. We will publish
    them in a detailed report at the beginning of next year.<\/span><\/p>

    \u00a0<\/span><\/p>

    Freedom for every detainee and
    justice for the victims and their families.<\/span><\/p>
