Germany puts former Syrian regime intelligence officers on an unprecedented trial for war crimes

Senior public prosecutor Jasper Klinge and state prosecutor Philipp Boegner stand in the courtroom prior to the start of the first trial of suspected members of Syrian regime leader Bashar al Assad's security services for crimes against humanity, in Koblenz, Germany, April 23, 2020.

Grey haired, with a bald patch and wearing a moustache, glasses and a dark sweater, he sat calmly behind a glass cubicle erected under hygiene rules adopted by the court against the coronavirus outbreak. The second suspect, Eyad A, 43, charged with facilitating the torture of at least 30 opposition activists arrested after an anti-Assad demonstration in 2011, covered his face with his grey jacket hood as he took his seat at the court. He arrived in Germany in April 2018.

German prosecutors say Anwar R oversaw interrogations before leaving Syria in 2012. He arrived in Germany in 2014.
