Details of Mohamed Osso's participation in the demonstrations

Oso revealed his participation in the demonstrations that erupted at the beginning of the Syrian revolution, as he appeared in an old video recording chanting against the regime while being carried on the shoulders of the demonstrators.

Osso said that his arrest was not immediately after this participation, but rather occurred about a year and a half later as a result of his communication with activists and his assistance to displaced people from Homs.

The artist explained that the reason for the arrest was related to monitoring his phone line, as he was interrogated about calls he made with people whose identities he did not know exactly. He was also accused of communicating with activists and trying to force him to carry out an ambush for the security services.

Humanitarian conditions

Oso spoke about the humanitarian circumstances that prompted him to participate in supporting the displaced, as he worked with his friends to distribute food and blankets to families affected by the bombing in Damascus, stressing that this simple activity was considered a serious charge at that time.
