Conviction of former Syrian secret policeman sparks debate

The Trump administration accused Syria’s government on Monday of hanging hundreds of political opponents and other prisoners and burning their bodies at a military prison near Damascus, part of what the State Department called an egregious pattern of atrocities by Syrian President Bashar Assad. Gharib, 44, was sentenced by the Higher Regional Court in the German city of Koblenz to 4½ years in prison. His trial, along with Raslan’s, began in April 2020, with both of them prosecuted under the principle of universal jurisdiction for serious crimes no matter where they allegedly occurred. With Syrian President Bashar Assad still in power and little hope of accountability within the country, that principle has granted victims of Syria’s security forces many of them refugees now living overseas the ability to pursue alleged perpetrators of war crimes or genocide in European and other international courts.

Almost a decade earlier, Raslan had nabbed Bunni from the streets of Damascus, shoving him into a car and taking him to a branch of Syria’s General Intelligence Directorate for what turned out to be a five-year prison stay.
