Syria Muslim Brothers ask for investigating Hama's incidents

The banned Muslim Brothers groups in Syria on Thursday called for making a judicial independent investigation in order to disclose facts pertaining to incidents that took place in the 1980s where thousands of the groups members were killed in Hama to the north of the capital Damascus.

The group's secretary general Ali Sader Eddine al-Bayanouni called in a press conference held in London yesterday for forming an independent national judicial committee that opens the file of these incidents and issue its verdict on this so as "all will release facts about the painful phase and each and every party to bear moral and legal inflected responsibilities."

Al-bayanouni deplored the mass killing operations, the peak of which was the Hama's massacre in February 1983. He stressed that the groups have no connection to the acts of violence carried out by certain persons that targeted students at the "artillery school" in June 1979 in Aleppo, to the north of Syria.

Al-Bayanouni strongly attacked the ruling Baath Party in Syria and held it responsible for "imposing the policies of tyrants and extermination in Syria."

On the other hand, al-Bayanouni announced a political project calling for building a modern state in Syria and to the liberty of the political work. He stressed that this project "embodies the vision of the Muslim Brothers group in Syria as a country where national unity and dignity for its people is maintained." Worthy mentioning that the banned Muslim Brothers group in Syria is covered by law no. 49 for 1980 that states death penalty for every member of this group.
