Germany jail for Syrian over civilians' deaths
The Federal Supreme Court in Germany sentenced a Syrian citizen to life imprisonment after convicting him of crimes against humanity and war crimes committed during the Syrian conflict. This decision was based on evidence proving his involvement in acts of violence and arbitrary arrests against civilians in Busra al-Sham between 2012 and 2014. The accused, who joined a local Shiite militia and was a leader within it, directly contributed to acts of intimidation, killing, and looting, with the aim of frightening the Sunni population and forcing them to leave the city. The court confirmed that these crimes were carried out as part of a systematic attack on civilians. It also stated that German law allows for the prosecution of perpetrators of international crimes regardless of their nationality or where the crimes took place. The verdict is final after the exhaustion of all appeals.
