TEHRAN – Syrian Mother Superior Agnes Mariam de la Croix ruled out the allegations made by terrorists and the West over the chemical weapons attack in the outskirts of the Syrian capital, Damascus,according to FNA.
Mother Agnes argued in an interview with BBC on Tuesday, the horrifying scenes – of men, women and children either dead or dying from inhaling sarin gas – which caused such international outrage were stage-managed.
The videos formed an important part of the evidence used by much of the international community to argue that government forces carried out the attack.
Mother Agnes said to have carried out an exhaustive study of the videos and in a detailed report said she has found evidence of manipulation.
She noted the body of the same child can be seen in several different videos filmed in separate locations. “Why should they take a corpse to many locations?” she says.
“It is evidence my dear… I am not a commission of inquiry, but for me it is sure. I have evidence that confirms there’s been manipulation of the corpses”.
“Some families of the abducted people contacted us to claim that some of the children presented as victims of chemical attacks are in reality their own children,” says Mother Agnes.
“They recognized them and asked us to find out what happened to them. “
After completing her report, Mother Agnes distributed it at the United Nations in Geneva.
In recent weeks she has become the focus of media attention because of her attempt to prove to the world that Syrian “opposition” activists fabricated the videos showing victims of the Damascus chemical attack.
