A source within the Service authoritatively confirmed to The Nation on Sunday, September 22, that the director general of the State Security Service, on 19th September 2024, directed their immediate release.
According to the source, those released commended the gesture and expressed optimism about the humane face with which the Service conducted the investigation.
