Syrian families seek justice for dead and missing victims of Assad regime | BBC News


More than 10 months after the fall of Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad the country is still uncovering the horrors of the past. More than 181,000 people are unaccounted for after 14 years of civil war. Mass graves are still being uncovered and the families of those killed or who disappeared are demanding answers.

Syrian’s are gathering documentary evidence of the crimes of the Assad’s regime in the hope that those responsible can be brought to justice.

They’re investigating the torture, executions and the arbitrary imprisonment of huge numbers of people. Volunteers, including victims and their families, are determined to preserve the evidence needed to bring the perpetrators to account.

Sophie Raworth presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Orla Guerin in Syria.
