A former Syrian prison warden and provincial governor, was sentenced today to 60 years in prison.
Samir Ousman Alsheikh was found guilty of torturing prisoners and lying to U.S. immigration officials to gain entry to the United States.
Three of Alsheikh’s victims testified at trial about being tortured themselves and seeing and hearing the torture of other prisoners.
The victims said they were fastened to a device, known as the “Flying Carpet,” that forcibly folded their bodies in half at the waist, manacled to the ceiling and suspended for days or hours.
They also claimed they were savagely beaten while immobilized inside tires, and packed into tiny, filthy, cold, wet cells that were infested with insects and other vermin.
