"It’s very possible that it's the biggest one that existed in regime-held Syria," she said. Syrian businessman Fares Al-Tout said his family had owned the factory before Syria's civil war, when it was built to produce potato chips branded Captain Korn. He said it was seized in 2018 by a businessman close to Maher, Amer al-Khiti. "They flipped it from the production of food to the production of captagon that killed Syria's children in support of the Fourth Division," Tout told Reuters. The U.S imposed sanctions on Khiti in 2020 over his ties to the Assad regime. Britain imposed sanctions on him in 2023, saying he "operates and controls multiple businesses in Syria which facilitate the production and smuggling of drugs, including captagon." Khiti could not immediately be reached for comment. On the scene, I found electoral pamphlets for Syria's peoples assembly lying on the floor with Khiti listed as one of the candidates, as well as separate electoral cards with just his name on them.
