QUNEITRA– Syrian Prisoner Sidki Suleiman al-Maqt, from the occupied Town of Majdal Shams in the occupied Syrian Golan, is the oldest Syrian prisoner and one of the 13 oldest prisoners in the world.
Al-Maqt has been in the Israeli prisons for more than 26 years. By October 24th, al-Maqt will have finished his 27th year in prison.
Father of prisoner al-Maqt, Sheikh Suleiman al-Maqt expressed pride in the sacrifices made by the family and the people of Golan, adding that al-Maqt family members have spent more than 60 years in the Israeli prisons since the 1970s.
He added that Sidki al-Maqt is one of the Golan citizens who practiced their legitimate right in resisting the occupation.
"We are proud that Sidki, along with martyr Sitan al-Wali, martyr Hayel Abu Zaid, Assem al-Wali, Medhat al-Saleh, Ayman Abu Jabal and Bishr Abu Jabal refused the verdicts of the Zionist court in 1985 and started chanting the Syrian national anthem in the court. Even when the court's guards started hitting them badly, they continued chanting the anthem." He added.
Liberated prisoner Bishr al-Maqt, Sidki's brother, pointed out to the procedures in the Israeli prisons, adding that the Israeli practices are flagrant violation of the prisoners' rights.
Sidki al-Maqt, 45 years old, was one of the founders of the secret resistance in Golan, he was arrested in 1985 and sentenced to 27 years in prison by the Israeli court-martial.
