Taking him to unknown destination | Unknown people kidnap civilian in Daraa countryside

Daraa province: Unknown gunmen kidnapped a civilian from inside his house in Al-Ghariyah Al-Sharqiyah town in Daraa countryside, and he was taken to an unknown destination without knowing his fate.
It is noted that the civilian hails from the capital Damascus and has been living in the town for several years.
Kidnapping gangs are widespread in regime-held areas, due to their inability to control the security chaos in their areas.
On September 22, a young man of Jordanian nationality was kidnapped in Al-Shi’ab area south eastern of Al-Suwaydaa after he entered Syrian territory through Nasib Crossing on borders for medication.
According to reliable SOHR sources, the gang belongs to a Syrian smuggler accused of “drug dealing”, where the gang contacted the family of the young man and demanded 17,000 Jordanian dinars and claimed that he owed that amount to another Jordanian smuggler.
