🔴 #DabbaghCase: One year ago, on 24 May 2024, the Paris Criminal Court delivered a historic ruling: it found Ali Mamlouk, Jamil Hassan, and Abdel Salam Mahmoud—three senior officials of the fallen regime of Bashar al-Assad—guilty of complicity in crimes against humanity and war crimes committed against Mazzen and Patrick #Dabbagh, a Franco-Syrian father and his son.
The three high officials were convicted and sentenced in absentia to life imprisonment. This was the first trial in #France related to crimes committed by the Syrian regime of Bashar al-Assad.

'He speaks of child prisoners also tortured: one, 9 years old arrested because a demonstration passed in front of his house; the other, 13 years old, barefoot henhouse boy 'beaten even harder' because he didn’t feel blows' #DabbaghCase #Syria #SaveTheRest https://t.co/YPHdWkK3kq
'As if plunged back into horror..he struggles to tell the story...He recounts collective sessions where, 'attached to a single chain' sometimes on all fours they are beaten together..guards increase violence for any reason' #DabbaghCase #Syria #SaveTheRest https://t.co/YPHdWkK3kq

🔴#Dabbaghcase : The #Paris Criminal Court has just found three high-ranking Syrian officials - Ali Mamlouk, Jamil Hassan and Abdel Salam Mahmoud - guilty of complicity in crimes against humanity and war crimes committed against Patrick and Mazzen #Dabbagh. They were sentenced to life imprisonment.
According to Clémence Bectarte, lawyer for the @fidh_fr, the Dabbagh family and the Syrian centre for media and freedom of expression (@SyrianCenter), the civil parties:
"This trial has highlighted the incredible determination and courage of the Syrians, particularly Obeida and Hanane Dabbagh, in their relentless fight against impunity for the crimes committed by the regime".
🔴#Dabbaghcase : This morning was devoted to the closing arguments of the lawyer for the civil parties. Clémence Bectarte, lawyer for the Dabbagh family, @fidh_fr and the Syrian Centre for Media a Freedom of Expression (@SyrianCenter) , spoke for just over two hours.
In front of the empty defendant’s box, she pointed out that Ali Mamlouk, Jamil Hassan and Abdel Salam Mahmoud – accused of complicity in #CrimesAgainstHumanity and #WarCrimes – had chosen not to appoint a lawyer: further proof of their “feeling of impunity.”🧵👇
🔴#DabbaghCase : At the end of the day, after the #Dabbaghs, a final civil party took the floor. Mazen Darwich is a Syrian lawyer, a prominent defender of #Freedomofexpression and #HumanRights and co-founder of the Syrian Centre for Media and Freedom of Expression (@SyrianCenter).
During a raid on the association's premises by the air force intelligence services, he was arrested along with all of his colleagues on February 12, 2012 in #Damascus.🧵👇
🔴#Dabbaghcase: The public prosecutor considers that Patrick and Mazzen #Dabbagh were victims of imprisonment, acts of torture, enforced disappearances and murder – constituting crimes against humanity, as well as extortion concerning the family home.
She asks the Court to sentence the three defendants - Ali Mamlouk, Jamil Hassan and Abdel Salam Mahmoud – to life imprisonment for complicity in these crimes.
The Court will deliver its verdict by the end of the day. Press release to follow.
🔴⚖️#Dabbaghcase : Tomorrow, Friday 22 May, at the closing of the trial, the Syrian Centre for Media and Freedom of Expression (@SyrianCenter), the member of the FIDH and a civil party to the trial, is organising a second rally in favour of justice and in support of the victims of torture and enforced disappearance.
This demonstration, in which Syrian musician Hareth Mhedi will perform, will take place simultaneously in #Paris and in several cities in Syria.

🔴#Dabbaghcase : Since yesterday, the voices of Syrians have been resonating in the #Paris Criminal Court. They tell of the detention centres, the omnipresent torture, the abuses suffered, the children and elderly arrested and tortured.
The witnesses were all detained for a time at the detention centre at #Mezzeh military airport, near #Damascus, run by the Syrian Air Force's dreaded intelligence services, where Mazzen and Patrick #Dabbagh were last seen alive. 🧵👇
🔴#DabbaghCase: First morning of the trial - filmed "for history" - of the three high-ranking Syrian intelligence officials, before the #Paris Criminal Court.
The presiding judge recounted the disappearance of Patrick and Mazzen Dabbagh in 2013, and described in broad strokes the situation in Syria since Hafez al-Assad (father of now president, Bashar al-Assad), was in power in Syria.
He then provided the identities of the three defendants, whom the court considers to be absent “without valid excuse” and “to be tried in absentia.” 🧵👇
