Martyrs graves in Afrin were exhumed by the Turkish occupation forces and the affiliated mercenary groups that caused wide spread popular discontent more notably of men of religion that dubbed the incident as a crime.

On this issue, and to verify the point on a religious point of view ANHA carried out an interview with member to the Muslim Congress and administrator in the Aleppo Religious Gathering Association Sheikh Ali Hesen.

Sheikh Ali Hesen said that ''human being according to the Sharia Law is preserved and dignified alive or dead, what is being done by the Turkish occupation forces and affiliated groups in Afrin that turkey alleges to be a mass grave is groundless, they are bodies of martyr that fell in defence of their home and territory, dignity and honour''.

The Sheikh said that the Turkish hypocrisy is by no means grave and has no limits that all run in dire contradiction to Islam values.

You saw how the Turkish occupation forces exhumed martyrs in all occupied areas and how body of martyr Barine Kobane was dismembered and mutilated at the hands of mercenary groups affiliated to Turkish occupation forces, this runs in dire contradiction to Muslim values that respects highly human beings.

Sheikh Hesen concluded to say that tyhese actions have nothing with Islam, ''this is a shameful crime whose perpetrator ought to be held accountable''.
