Teachers of Daraa face regime's monthly interrogation to get paycheck
2015-09-03
[EN.ZAMANALWSL.NET] Teachers in liberated areas in southern province of Daraa face the risk of being arrest each month they receive their Salaries, as they have to visit the the regime's intelligence before getting paid from the directory of education.

Teachers working in schools in the liberated areas, reported that each month they receive their salaries, they have to pass the branch of the military intelligence linked to the directorate of education in the Daraa, which gives them a permission to release their salaries.

A teacher works in a village in the Liberated part of Daraa confirmed to Eqtsad those procedures, and mentioned that they have for more than a year, as an agreement between the regime and local councils indicated that regime would re-open schools in the liberated areas and pay the teachers' salaries on condition to exclusively getting them from the directory of education and after the agreement of the security and intelligence.

The teachers added that many teachers were incarcerated
Maw! They're comin' to get me, Maw!
after visiting the security branch because of a report or query about them, and they disappeared for long time.

Moreover, the speaker mentioned that many teachers who were active in the revolution or those who did not attend military service, teach in schools but don't dare to go and receive their salaries, in the same time there was no support or compensates for them from any party f the opposition.

This case raises a lot of queries about the opposition's institutions are supposed to take responsibility for schools in the liberated areas.

Suhail, one of the activists in local councils said that the matter of teachers' salaries had been discussed many times, however, the cost was too high to get covered by any sponsor as number of teachers in Daraa exceeded 10 thousands.

From his point of view, the activist expected that the regime offered to pay teachers' salaries in order to assure controlling of the liberated areas and people's source of living. He appealed to businessmen and institutions of the opposition to intervene and support schools and teachers, as many of them were arrested when they went to the Directorate of Education to receive their salaries.
