. The article is new (created on 29 April). It is interesting and long enough. No copyvio or plagiarism was detected. ~~My only concern is that the information that he was held in Mezzeh prison is not verified by inline citation.~~ Borsoka (talk) 04:29, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the review. That's confirmed by the unesco source. I've just added the citations. Intelligentsium 04:45, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
