敘利亞前領導人巴沙爾·阿薩德的審判開始
Trial of former Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad begins
2026年4月,敘利亞的歷史翻開了新的一頁,地點就在大馬士革的司法宮。
In April 2026, a new chapter in Syria's history began at the Palace of Justice in Damascus.
過渡政府已啟動轉型正義程序,以處理在14年內戰期間犯下的罪行。
The interim government has launched a transitional justice process to address crimes committed during the 14-year civil war.
儘管外界對於前領導人的命運多有臆測,但必須釐清的是,巴夏爾‧阿薩德的審判目前並未親自出庭,因為他仍流亡在俄羅斯。
While there has been speculation about the fate of the former leader, it is important to clarify that the trial of Bashar al-Assad is not currently taking place in person, as he remains in exile in Russia.
最受矚目的被告是德拉政治安全局前局長阿提夫‧納吉布,他於2025年1月被捕。
The most notable defendant to appear in court is Atef Najib, the former head of the Political Security Branch in Daraa, who was arrested in January 2025.
同時,國際社會的努力也在持續;法國司法當局已對阿薩德及其兄弟發出戰爭罪逮捕令。
Meanwhile, international efforts continue; French judicial authorities have issued arrest warrants against Assad and his brother for war crimes.
法國最高法院於2025年7月做出標誌性裁定,確認阿薩德不再享有國家元首豁免權,這為未來的起訴打開了大門。
A landmark ruling in July 2025 by France's highest court confirmed that Assad no longer possesses head-of-state immunity, opening the door for future prosecution.
這些雙管齊下的努力——大馬士革的國內審判與國際法律追訴——代表了在追求過去十年暴行責任的道路上,邁出了重大轉變的一步。
These dual efforts—domestic trials in Damascus and international legal pursuits—represent a significant shift in the search for accountability for the atrocities of the past decade.
