Inside Assad’s putrid ‘butcher room’ where bodies of opponents were systematically dismembered, drained & melted in acid

BASHAR al-Assad’s butcher room, where critics were dismembered and melted in acid, has been uncovered.

The nightmare chamber in Sednaya prison saw some of the most heinous crimes of the Assad dynasty carried out.

The Syrian tyrant was ousted from power last weekend after a 12-day lightning blitz swept aside the regime’s army.

Assad used his prisons to clamp down on critics through violence and imprisonment and keep his sick regime propped up.

But their gory insides have now been revealed as journalists and rebels have been able to enter after guards fled.

One room dubbed the “butcher room” saw bodies sliced up and broken down in acid.

According to a guard speaking to The Sun’s reporter at the grim location, he mentioned that the specific room was used for dismembering prisoners. The bodies were sliced up, and the remains were likely disposed of through the pipes.

“They threw acid on the ground to dissolve the bodies.”

Even several days post-liberation by the rebels, the gruesome room remained coated in a thick layer of human waste, decomposed bodies, and housed sawing equipment.

A slab used to lay bodies on when cutting them up sits next to a menacing shredder.

One of the table saws now rests overturned in the filth, a stark contrast to its original position where it was used to amputate body parts during the horrific dismemberment process conducted by the guards.

There’s even a cell at one end of the room where captives would have been held before their brutal demise.

Prisoners trapped in Assad’s underground ‘human slaughterhouse’ jail where dead inmates’ were pulped with ‘iron press’

Those who survived the horrific ordeal said bodies were crushed, burnt, and dissolved in acid when guards sought to dispose of the people who died.

A mass grave has now been found in another area of Damascus with rows upon rows of dead bodies being investigated.

Sednaya prison, nicknamed the “human slaughterhouse”, was a military prison and death camp operated by Assad’s goons.

Rebels and Syrian civilians have investigated Sednaya prison and all of its secret compartments and underground dungeons after liberating it.

They have made sick discoveries that show the full barbarity of the Assad regime.

Torture devices have been found inside including a disturbing “Iron Press” device.

The large metal press is thought to have been used to crush victims for torture and also hide evidence of human remains.

Rebels who stormed the jail found dozens of red rope nooses used for mass hangings in an execution room.

Behind many of the walls sit electronic underground doors which led to dark bunkers filled with prisoners.

Horrific footage captures the moment rebels find piles of dead bodies in the dungeons who had been tortured to death.

The bodies were taken to Al-Mujtahid Hospital as teams carried out an investigation into the secret areas of the prison.

Videos showed emaciated political prisoners, who were reached, shackled to concrete beds and screaming to be released.

Rebels also discovered a chilling “Book of Death” with the names of nearly 30,000 people executed.

Footage shows rebels, in utter disbelief, flicking through the death book with hundreds of names on each page.

One rebel points out how “even field executions” are present in the book before continuing to stress to his fellow rebels not to destroy or tear the papers.

Shaming Assad’s regime and how much other evidence was destroyed under him, the man says: “People, we must contribute to preserving these properties.

“The regime broke the cameras and destroyed the hard drives – so that these crimes wouldn’t be exposed.”

Haunting images also showed massive piles of clothes and shoes hidden away in a secret compartment.

SEDNAYA PRISON LIBERATED

Sednaya had become synonymous with Assad’s reign of tyranny over the past couple of decades.

Footage from the Syrian capital shows dozens of women and young men reportedly walking free for the first time in years after rebels stormed the national prisons on the weekend.

A clip even shows a toddler leaving a cell as rebels cheered on.

Survivors of the torturous prison provided chilling testimonies of their near-death experiences, claiming it was “carefully designed to humiliate, degrade, sicken, starve and ultimately kill those trapped inside”.

The overthrown dictator Assad previously denied killing thousands of detainees at Sednaya.

He also denied using a secret crematorium to dispose of their remains in 2017.

Despite the denial, the so-called “Caesar” files, which was a collection of over 55,000 photographs, was smuggled out of Syria in 2013 by a former military police photographer.

These images documented the unspeakable torture and deaths of over 11,000 prisoners in Syrian government custody between March 2011 and August 2013.

Some held at the horrific prison of Sednaya say they were raped, and in some cases, forced to rape other inmates.

A regular form of punishment was some kind of torture and severe beatings from guards, it’s claimed, which led to individuals suffering life-changing damage like disabilities or death.

Floors of cells were coated in blood and pus from tortured prisoners, according to a 2017 Amnesty report, with the bodies of dead prisoners collected like rubbish at 9am each morning by guards.

What is Sednaya Prison?

By Annabel Bate, Foreign News Reporter

SEDNAYA Prison – otherwise known as the Human Slaughterhouse – was a military prison near Damascus, Syria.

Operated by the government of Syrian Arab Republic, the hellhole prison was used to hold thousands of inmates that were civilian detainees, anti-government rebels and political prisoners.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) estimated in January 2021 that an overwhelming 30,000 detainees were horrifically executed under the Assad regime in Sednaya.

Guards would use torture as a killing technique, as well as have mass executions.

Floors of cells were coated in blood and pus from tortured prisoners, according to a 2017 Amnesty report, with the bodies of dead prisoners collected like rubbish at 9am each morning by guards.

Detainees were also forced to follow horrific rules as they were forced as they were deprived the basic necessities of food, water and medicine.

When food would be delivered it would often be cruelly scattered across cell floors by guards with a mixture of blood and dirt.

Other disturbing accounts say the mass hangings occurred once or twice a week on a Monday and Wednesday – chillingly in the middle of the night.

The unbelievable practices, which human rights groups say amount to war crimes and crimes against humanity, were authorised at the highest level of the Syrian government under Assad.
