Syrian regime militias, more commonly known as ‘Shabiha’ portray the structure and goals of the Assad regime to accumulate personal wealth and ensure its own survival at all costs, surfacing in Syria’s streets, terrorizing, murdering, and mouthing obscenities.
In this regard and on his personal "Facebook" page, the dissident Brigadier-General “Ibraheem Fawaz al-Jabawi” dupty former police chief in Homs; gave an account of the horrific stories and atrocities committed by Assad’s Shabiha and military forces in Homs against the disabled people.
The events occurred in Karm Al-Zaiton's neighborhood in Homs mid- November 2011, when the area was stormed into by Assad’s gangs, and two Shabiha broke into the house of a family of four, a father in his thirties, a wife and two children, along with the mother of the man, and once they entered the house, they unleashed a string of humiliating curses and verbal abuse of all sorts, terrorizing the family with their distinctive Alawites accent.
Afterwards, the two thugs wagered each other on the best way to push the man to his limits and reveal the “terrorist” in him, therefore they hit him with the machine gun on his head, and while he was laying on the ground in so much agony, they beaten his elderly mother, raped his wife, and lastly slaughtered his two children mercilessly in front of his eyes, but the man was still on the floor totally paralyzed due to the pain.
And since all their attempts went in vain, and in order to humiliate his manhood even more, they started plucking his mustache hair by hair, and to their surprise, the man didn’t utter a word but only moved his head away to ease his pain.
Furious to evoke his anger, they stepped on his head and then the wife who had fainted earlier after the rape, told them that her husband is retarded and deaf, and after all the torture the family had experienced, the two criminals ended their game and left the house after committing the most horrible crime against humanity.
On this sad incident, Dr. Ibrahim al-Jabawi commented, saying that all Shabiha try to prove that all people are terrorists by terrorizing them to get confessions under torture, while the true terrorists are them since they kill children, elderly, and rape women and girls in front of their husbands and families, and if men object on these crimes, they consider them terrorists!
According to al-Jabawi, there were similar incidents and stories that took place in Homs, in which men had their full mental capacities, and when they objected on the crimes committed to their families, regime’s shabiha tied them to the wall until they finished their despicable actions, and after that ended those men’s misery by killing them.
Moreover, some of them, while handcuffed and leg cuffed, were forced to have incest with close female relatives in front of shabiha’s eyes, who ended the tragedy later by killing everyone and burning the house while the family still inside, and few of these families have survived for one reason or another.
“This is how terrorism and extremism are created in any society, while some in the opposition care only for power and money, may God help the Syrians”, he added.
