Today, the Syrian judiciary sentenced former Grand Mufti Ahmad Badr Al-Din Hassoun to life imprisonment on charges of inciting sectarian tensions, abusing his position, and inciting violence and justifying killings during Bashar Al-Assad's regime. Hassoun is known by the nickname "The Bombs' Mufti" for his support of indiscriminate bombing campaigns in Syrian areas in 2011. He faced charges including exploiting his office for personal gain, establishing relations with senior officials and sectarian militias, and encouraging support for the regime, in addition to backing Russian and Iranian intervention. He participated in a session alongside international officials and legal experts. His trial is part of transitional justice measures to hold accountable those responsible for crimes against the Syrian people during the regime's rule.
