Palestinian refugees complained about being blackmailed by some scouts checking the validity of homes in Al-Yarmouk camp for the Palestinian refugees.

The refugees sent several messages to  Action Group for Palestinians of Syria saying that the scouts do not grant the approvals of housing unless you pay them a mount of money.

Activists confirmed that one of the refugees paid 30,000 Syrian pounds for a scout to give her the approval of her house, and that some the owners of the habitable houses were not given the permissions because they did not pay money.

The family of the refugee Yousef Mustafa Al-Khateeb appealed to release their son, arrested by the Syrian security forces since 2014 while he was on his way to work.
