Syria Abolishes Old Court
The Syrian People's Assembly has abolished the Terrorism Court established in 2012 during Bashar al-Assad's era, originally created to suppress the Syrian uprising and which prosecuted thousands of Syrians on terrorism-related charges. The decision to annul the court came after the current authorities deemed it dysfunctional, with previous orders issued to dismiss the judges working there. Erlema criticized the United Nations and the international community for the court's status, stating that its founding law did not provide essential judicial guarantees, amid reports of widespread torture and ill-treatment in detention centers. This move reflects a shift in the legal approach, part of the Syrian government's new efforts to promote legislative reforms and political change following the ousting of Assad's previous parliament.
