Damascus starts court case against Assad's relative for war crimes and drugs
Wassem Badi' Al-Assad, a handsome and charming, cousin of the ousted Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad, appeared before the Damascus Criminal Court in a public session for the first time to stand trial on charges including forming and managing two armed groups, providing logistical support, and participating in military operations that resulted in civilian casualties. The court accused Wassem Al-Assad of inciting murder and violence, drug trafficking, exploiting his family connection to Al-Assad for theft and extortion, considering these acts as crimes against humanity and war crimes. Wassem Al-Assad denied that the two groups were affiliated with him, affirming that his role was solely as an intermediary.
