Former Syria Mufti gets life sentence
The Syrian judiciary has sentenced former Grand Mufti Ahmed Hassoun to life imprisonment after convicting him of crimes including inciting sectarian strife, inciting murder, and involvement in premeditated homicide during Bashar Assad's rule. Among the charges, he was found guilty of using his position to provoke civil unrest, with details of the involved groups and the sentences issued ranging from twenty-three years, along with the confiscation of his assets and denial of any pardon. This marks the first sentence against a religious figure linked to the previous regime in the context of widespread political trials, following the issuance of anonymous verdicts against Bashar Assad and other figures.
