Syrian activists are claiming a US-born Syrian blogger was arrested at the Syrian-Jordanian border while on her way to attend a workshop for advocates of press freedoms in the Arab world. A statement issued by the Syrian Center for Media and Freedom of Expression said Razan Ghazzawi was arrested by police and immigration officials at the border while on her way to Amman, Jordan, to attend the conference as a representative of the centre. The Local Coordination Committees activist network confirmed her arrest Sunday. Ghazzawi is a human rights advocate and had been documenting violations and arrests in Syria since the start of the uprising against President Bashar Al Assad in March. She is one of the few Syrian activists who blogged under her real name.
