Syrian Justice to Collaborate with Interpol on Regime Symbols
The Syrian regime issued death sentences against deposed President Bashar al-Assad and several members of his ruling circle, in a move that is the first of its kind since the regime's overthrow at the end of 2024. A Syrian judicial official clarified that a committee has been formed to liaise with Interpol in order to transfer the wanted criminals who have been sentenced in absentia, to enhance international cooperation in pursuing those wanted. The Syrian Ministry of Justice responded to accusations by Amnesty International regarding judicial procedures, affirming that the trials were conducted in accordance with Syrian law, with full legal guarantees and rights to defense. They emphasized that these sentences are part of holding responsible those involved in past crimes and violations, amid calls for judicial reforms and a reaffirmation that legal penalties, including the death sentence, are based on evidence and an independent judiciary.
