The conspiracy against the young martyr Milad Al-Farakh was orchestrated by Haitham Qasqas, the Mayor of Mushtaya, and a contractor named Hani Elias. They attempted to extort thousands of dollars from Milad, and there is a record of conversations as evidence.
They then coordinated with Abu Arab, the head of General Security in Wadi al-Nasara, along with two authority elements, Abu Musab and Abu Ubaida, to arrest Milad under a fabricated pretext of a “food violation” involving spoiled meat. During the arrest, they attempted to extort additional money from him.
Following his arrest, a statement was issued by the Christian Youth Council in Syria and the Diaspora, stating that Milad had been arbitrarily detained on a fabricated charge in Al-Balouna Prison, where he was subjected to severe torture, and they called for immediate intervention by the relevant authorities.
• Subsequent Fabrication
As part of further violations against Milad, elements of the de facto authorities attempted to fabricate a security case using the Suzuki car fire incident. Although the General Security had previously maintained that it was neither a security nor terrorist incident, merely a battery fire, they reopened the file to falsely accuse Milad of being a terrorist and holding responsibility for rigging the vehicle — more than a month and a half after the incident.

🔹 Milad Aziz Al-Farakh, a young unarmed Christian, was killed 15 days after his arbitrary arrest under the pretext of a “food violation.” He was subjected to severe torture and forced to make false confessions, with fabricated accusations labeling him as a terrorist. After multiple attempts by the authorities to coerce him, including physical beatings and intimidation, Milad was executed inside the detention facility by the General Security of the de facto authorities.

🔹 The de facto authorities informed his family that he had died of a “heart attack,” a statement clearly contradicted by the photos of his body, exposing the false narrative presented by General Security.

Milad Aziz Al-Farakh was tortured to death following an arbitrary arrest on a baseless pretext. This crime is not an isolated incident but part of an organized campaign amounting to systematic ethnic cleansing carried out by the Ghulani authority through its security apparatus against the Christian community in Syria.

🔹 After the exposure of this compounded crime, “Abu Arab” fled with his family from his home in Mermarita to Al-Muzaynah following public disclosure of the incident.

🔹 The burial of the martyr Milad was postponed indefinitely, in an organized attempt to obstruct the truth and bury it along with the body. Since that morning, his family waited to receive the body but faced deliberate delays, sham committees without forensic doctors, and empty promises. The body was then transferred to Damascus under the pretext of completing paperwork. In Damascus, a rudimentary autopsy was conducted with the apparent aim of altering the body, concealing the location of injuries, and erasing evidence, leading to suspicions that his organs were stolen.

🔹 The body bore clear signs of the crime: bruises on the face, darkened legs, severe head injuries, beatings to sensitive areas including genital trauma, and a broken rib that penetrated the heart.

🔹 The authorities refused to hand over the body to the family except under strict conditions, forcing them to sign receipt papers without allowing the coffin to be opened or a proper funeral ceremony. The official narrative cited a “heart attack” as the cause of death, whereas family testimony confirms that Milad was arrested under the pretext of a food violation, subjected to severe torture, forced to give false confessions, with the security apparatus denying his detention prior to the sudden announcement of his death.

🔹 After examining the body, the family and witnesses confirmed that the official General Security narrative claiming death by heart attack was false.
