Syrian regime acknowledges death of 1056 people in detention centers

“The Syrian regime began in early 2018 to uncover the tragic fate of detainees by registering the deaths of many of the forcibly disappeared in the civil registry departments without being bound by the procedures for registering the dead of the detention centers as stipulated in Article 14 of the Civil Status Law.

Fadel Abdul Ghany, Director of SNHR, told Enab Baladi that documenting the detainees’ deaths in the civil registry departments is an acknowledgment by the Syrian regime of their killing”.
