Justice for raped Syrian boy
Justice for raped Syrian boy
Why this petition matters
This is a petition made for a young Syrian boy who was raped and filmed by three Lebanese men. A video of three men in Lebanon sexually assaulting a Syrian child who is estimated to be under the age of 13 has gone viral on social media, infuriating the local population.
The video showed the three young men kidnapping the child, beating him, and forcing him to engage in sexual acts with them, with rumours accusing the trio of raping the child.
He is seen trying to escape the abuse several times in the video.
According to Lebanese media, the child is of Syrian nationality and the incident occurred in the town of Sohmor, Western Bekaa.
The three men are identified and taken for interrogation, however it appears that there are more than three rapists. Additionally, the 13 year old boy has been going through this since he started working in olive oil extraction 2-3 years ago.
We need justice for this young boy. No human deserves this. The only reason these three predators did what they did and filmed it is because they were sure no-one will hold them accountable. No-one will punish them. We need to make them an example for every shameless brutal rapist out there.
And we should not stop there, we need to make sure this child is good and healthy, We need to help him get through what has been happening to him.
