New Document: Assad Reveals Contempt for Dutch Inquiry into Torture Allegations

Syrian regime response to accountability

In Sep 2020, the Netherlands notified Syria of its intention to hold it accountable under the Convention Against Torture.

As I show in this document, it turned out the Syrian regime had taken the threat seriously, forming a high-level committee to deal with it. The committee included Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Bashar Jaafari, the Deputy Minister of Justice, and a representative from the National Security Office, among others.

You might also want to know that each member of the committee was paid a game-changing sum. For example, Jaafari was paid a whopping $30 for attending seven sessions over six months.
