Syrian Rights Group Calls for Action on Torture
The Syrian Network for Human Rights called for the adoption of a comprehensive national approach to address the legacy of torture in Syria, on the occasion of International Victims of Torture Day. They emphasized the importance of uncovering the truth, holding perpetrators accountable, and reforming institutions to prevent future violations. The report revealed that methods of torture and systemic policies are linked to the structure of the detention system, noting that more than 181,000 people are still held or forcibly disappeared since 2011. Over 45,000 deaths have resulted from these practices, most of which occurred internally. The organization warned that these violations violate international law and stressed the need to implement transitional justice and accountability measures. They also called for the Syrian government to collaborate with international mechanisms to ensure victims' rights and end impunity.
