On June 25, 2019, Asayish of the Democratic Unionist Party released the head of the local council of West Qamishlu of the Kurdish National Council in Syria, Mohammad Ayo, after a period of detention lasting about two months.
The correspondent of Yekiti Media reported that al-Asaish released Ayo, pointing out that he was arrested on 3 May this year after a patrol of Asayish raided a meeting of the Western Council in Qamishlu, held at the Ayo house.
Asayish is still holding several members and supporters of the National Council and its political parties.
