The Syrian President Bashar al-Assad stressed that "Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said no word of truth since the crisis began in Syria."
He further accused Erdogan's government of being involved in shedding the Syrian blood.

Regarding the assassination of Sheikh Mohammad Said Ramadan Bouti, al-Assad highlighted that "the attitude of the clergy, including Sheikh Bouti, was essential in thwarting the scheme, which aims to create sectarian strife."

In an interview with both Turkish "Ulusal" channel and "Aydinilak" newspaper to be published Friday, he confirmed: "In seek of strife, they assassinated Bouti and another cleric in Aleppo in the last two days."

As excerpts from al-Assad's interview were posted on the "YouTube", all the so-called Free Syrian Army's claims of his assassination proved to be mere lies and rumors.

Earlier, al-Assad issued legislative on Kidnapping people and the due penalties.
The penalties, according to the decree, range from life penal work to death sentence, depending on the kidnapping motives, as those who kidnap for political or material ends or for revenge or for sectarian inducement or for ransoms are punished with life penal labor.
