Die Zahl der syrischen und internationalen Anwält\\*innen, Aktivist\\*innen und Journalist\\*innen, die das Verfahren miterleben wollten, war gigantisch – während der Gerichtssaal in meiner Erinnerung höchstens Platz für 70 Zuhörende bietet.\n\nDa ich wild entschlossen war, dabei zu sein, traf ich viel zu früh am Justizpalast im Zentrum von Damaskus ein. Eine Stunde vor Beginn der Anhörung betrat ich den für die Aufarbeitungs-Verfahren vorgesehenen Saal: Er gehört zum vierten Strafgerichtshofs, und ist ausgerechnet jener Saal, in dem mein Vater Riad Seif, 2001 zu fünf Jahren Gefängnis verurteilt wurde. „Untergraben der Verfassung“ lautete die Anklage, nachdem er sich für politischen Pluralismus und ein Ende des Machtmonopols der Ba‘ath-Partei ausgesprochen hatte. 2008 wurden mein Vater und seine Kolleg\\*innen wegen „Gründung einer Geheimorganisation“ zu zweieinhalb Jahren Gefängnis verurteilt – wieder in diesem Gerichtssaal. Damals wurde er „Zweiter Strafgerichtshof“ genannt.\n\nDie Stunde des Wartens rief schmerzhafte Erinnerungen wach: Ich sah meinen Vater wieder hinter Gittern, die Anklage die Höchststrafe verlangen. Noch einmal spürte ich die Erleichterung bei der Urteilsverkündung: Fünf Jahre Gefängnis und der Entzug aller bürgerlichen Rechte. Dann der zweite Prozess – Bilder meines Vaters und seiner Kollegen, in Gefängniskleidung und in einem Eisenkäfig zusammengepfercht. Daneben steht Dr. Fidaa Hourani, die als Frau nicht zusammen mit den Männern eingesperrt werden konnte.\n\nDiese Erinnerungen verblassten erst, als der heute Angeklagte den Saal betrat. Mir fehlen die Worte um meine Gefühle zu beschreiben, als der Richter mit dem Verlesen der Namen begann: angefangen mit Bashar Hafez al-Assad und Maher Hafez al-Assad… doch, dieses Verfahren bedeutet für Millionen Syrier\\*innen einen entscheiden Schritt auf dem Weg zur Gerechtigkeit!\n",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":106,"id":110},{"backgroundColor":107,"isTextBlack":108,"hasLineTop":109},{"content":15},{"content":43},{"content":43},"01KT9ADRCNERR7FENSNAT9563N",{"content":112},"Schmerzhafte Erinnerungen und wichtige erste Schritte\n",{"content":114},"Erinnerungen & erste Schritte",{"content":15},{"id":117,"content":118,"sync":47},"01KT9AHRAG6R52J7QQ8A9V2FGM",{"blocks":119,"settings":131,"headline":137,"navigation":139,"tags":141},{"content":120},[121],{"id":122,"content":123,"type":46,"sync":47},"01KT9AHRAG6WBE9J47EBEQVJ38",{"footnotes":124,"text":126,"isEmphasized":128,"isLarger":129,"isQuote":130},{"content":125},[],{"content":127},"Die chaotische erste Anhörung – bei der Angehörige der Opfer Anti-Assad-Sprechchöre riefen und eine große Zahl von Social-Media-Influencern anwesend war – wurde von vielen als Schauprozess bezeichnet. Diese zweite Anhörung dagegen zeichnete sich durch ein hohes Maß an Disziplin und Haltung aus. In diesem Umschwung kommt auch das Bemühen des Gerichts zum Ausdruck, die Vorgaben der syrischen Strafprozessordnung umzusetzen und so die Gewährleistung eines fairen Verfahrens zu stärken.\n\nZum Auftakt verlas der vorsitzende Richter die Anklageschrift, in der juristische Kategorien wie Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit, Kriegsverbrechen und schwere Verstöße gegen die Genfer Konvention angeführt wurden. Diese Klassifizierungen sind wichtig, weil sie von vornherein ausschließen, dass sich die Verteidigung, auf nationale Rechtssysteme oder die Anwendung vorheriger Amnestieregelungen berufen kann. Für die syrische Gerichtsbarkeit bedeutet dies eine beispiellose Entwicklung.\n\nDenn bisher sieht das syrische Strafrecht für Völkerrechtsverbrechen weder eine Definition noch ein Strafmaß vor. Dem Gesetzentwurf für die juristische Aufarbeitung, in dem derartige Verbrechen als Straftaten benannt werden, fehlt noch die Zustimmung durch die Volksversammlung. Diese wiederum wartet noch darauf, dass Übergangspräsident Ahmad Al Sharaa, die für ihre vollständige Konstituierung nötige Mitgliederliste aufstellt: Erst dann ist sie arbeitsfähig und kann Gesetze verabschieden.\n\nDass nun, ohne einen klar festgelegten rechtlichen Rahmen schon Verfahren begonnen haben, ist unter syrischen Menschenrechtler\\*innen und Jurist\\*innen ein höchst umstrittenes Thema. Denn es erschwert die Arbeit der Justiz: Einerseits sind der öffentliche Druck und der Schmerz der Überlebenden nur allzu verständlich und zu respektieren. Auf der anderen Seite setzen diese ersten Verfahren Maßstäbe für langfristige Aufarbeitungsprozesse, die auf stabilem juristischem Fundament stehen und beim Schutz und den Rechten der Opfer und Überlebenden keine Zugeständnisse machen sollten. Die drängendste und zugleich komplizierteste Frage dabei lautet: Werden die Gesetze zur juristischen Aufarbeitung, wenn sie einmal verabschiedet sind, auch rückwirkend auf jene Verfahren angewendet, die schon vor ihrem Inkrafttreten begonnen haben? Oder werden diese Prozesse nach dem jetzt geltenden syrischen Recht fortgesetzt, das für vorsätzlichen Mord die Todesstrafe vorsieht?\n\nJenseits dieser grundsätzlichen Fragen brachten Anwält\\*innen und weitere juristische Expert\\*innen in der Anhörung einige fundierte Kritikpunkte vor, insbesondere zur juristischen Kategorisierung der Anklage. So sei „Kriegsverbrechen“ für Anfang 2011 begangene Taten keine zutreffende Bezeichnung, weil der Syrienkonflikt erst im Juli des Jahres als bewaffneter Bürgerkrieg eingestuft worden war. Einige bemängelten auch, dass weder gewaltsames Verschwindenlassen, noch Verfolgung, als Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit gewertet werden.\n\nAndere entgegneten, die Anklageschrift spiegele lediglich die Ansicht des zuständigen Richters wider und habe keinerlei bindende Wirkung. Entscheidend sei alleine der Prozessverlauf und das abschließende Urteil, mit dem das Gericht seine eigene juristische Einschätzung und Argumentation darlegen werde. Egal wessen Sichtweise man teilt, unstrittig ist, dass der vorsitzende Richter die Anhörung durchgängig gut im Griff hatte. Seine Professionalität zeigte sich auch in profunder Kenntnis der Fallakten sowie die Befragung der Angeklagten – sie wurde in der folgenden Anhörung am 19. Mai fortgesetzt.\n\nZur Ironie dieses Prozesses gehört auch, dass der vorsitzende Richter, Fakhr al-Din al-Ayran, selber ein Abtrünniger ist, den das Assad-Regime in Abwesenheit zum Tode verurteilt hatte und dessen gesamte Besitztümer konfisziert worden waren.\n\nWichtig zu erwähnen sind außerdem die Einladung, Repräsentanten als Prozessbeobachter zu schicken, die das Justizministerium gegenüber unterschiedlichen zivilgesellschaftlichen Organisationen ausgesprochen hatte. Damit wird ein lobenswerter Präzedenzfall für die Kontrolle von Gerichtsverfahren durch die Zivilgesellschaft geschaffen.\n",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":132,"id":136},{"backgroundColor":133,"isTextBlack":134,"hasLineTop":135},{"content":15},{"content":43},{"content":43},"01KT9AHRAQQ6YNTYS46GBAXXGW",{"content":138},"Ein Prozess – doch auf welcher Rechtsgrundlage?\n",{"content":140}," Ein Prozess?",{"content":15},{"id":143,"content":144,"sync":47},"01KT9AKJ990687RBHHSJQW3XZQ",{"blocks":145,"settings":197,"headline":203,"navigation":205,"tags":207},{"content":146},[147,166,176,187],{"id":148,"content":149,"type":94,"sync":47},"01KT9B081NFWTNDYS52BRNSHZ8",{"image":150,"more":155,"footnotes":160,"caption":162,"isFullWidth":164,"isZoomable":165},{"content":151,"id":154},{"name":152},{"content":153},"whatsapp-image-2026-05-20-at-17-23-45-1-305388f9.jpeg","01KT9B0KWNSBERS73SQ94PNJ19",{"content":156,"id":159},{"buttons":157},{"content":158},[],"01KT9B081T2F10TKMGRG18ZPSJ",{"content":161},[],{"content":163},"Joumana Seif während einer der vielen Sitzungen mit der Transitional Justice Commission © Transitional Justice Commission",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"id":167,"content":168,"type":46,"sync":47},"01KT9AKJ993T0SGQ6TV480RG2F",{"footnotes":169,"text":171,"isEmphasized":173,"isLarger":174,"isQuote":175},{"content":170},[],{"content":172},"Bevor ich zum Schluss komme, möchte ich Ihnen mitteilen, dass ich meine Mitarbeit in der Kommission für Übergangsjustiz Ende März beendet habe. Diesen Schritt hatte ich dort im Februar schriftlich angekündigt und gleichzeitig versprochen, meine Arbeit bis Ende März fortzusetzen und so die professionelle Übergabe meiner Verantwortlichkeiten sicherzustellen. Es ist keine Übertreibung, wenn ich sage, dass ich meinen Aufgaben während der gesamten siebenmonatigen Tätigkeit mit größtmöglichem Engagement und äußerster Sorgfalt nachgekommen bin.\n\nMeine Gründe, dieses Amt niederzulegen lassen sich so zusammenfassen: Mir fehlte für die eine klare nationale Strategie, wie juristische Aufarbeitung in der näheren Zukunft aussehen soll. Meinem Verständnis nach sollten Unabhängigkeit, Inklusivität und Gleichberechtigung in Bezug auf unterschiedliche Opfer der Diktatur Grundprinzipien einer solchen Strategie sein. Doch die gegenwärtige Entwicklung scheint in eine andere Richtung zu gehen. Noch hoffe ich, mit dieser Einschätzung falsch zu liegen.\n\nIn jedem Fall bereue ich die Entscheidung, das Amt niederzulegen, noch nicht – hat sie es mir doch ermöglicht, mich ganz und gar der Riad Seif Menschenrechtsstiftung zu widmen. Eine Arbeit die ich als Ergänzung und Unterstützung der Kommission verstehe, denn ich bin zutiefst überzeugt, dass für juristische Aufarbeitung nicht nur staatliche Stellen verantwortlich sind. Der Zivilgesellschaft kommt hier die wichtige Aufgabe zu, Opfer und betroffene Communities als zentralen Akteure des Aufarbeitungsprozesses zu unterstützen und zu ermächtigen. Das betrifft die unterschiedlichsten Phasen: die Suche nach Wahrheit, Rechenschaftspflicht, Reparationszahlungen, Erinnerungsarbeit und die Reform von Institutionen. Letztlich lässt sich nur so ein dauerhafter Frieden anstreben.\n\nFür mich persönlich war es nach meinem Rückzug aus der Kommission besonders beruhigend, dass die Beziehungen zu meinen Kollegen dort Bestand haben.

The proceedings began with the trial of eight defendants over the events and massacres in Daraa that took place at the outset of the Syrian uprising in 2011. Among the accused are Bashar al-Assad and Maher al-Assad. While some of the defendants managed to flee the country following the fall of the regime (most likely to Russia, including Bashar and Maher al-Assad), security forces were able, several months ago, to arrest one of them inside Syrian territory – Atef Najib, who is the only one being tried in person.\n\nAtef Najib is known among Syrians as the “Butcher of Daraa.” He is a cousin of Bashar al-Assad and is now facing charges of responsibility for the arrest of the children of Daraa. These were the children who wrote anti-regime slogans on their school walls, and who were later arrested and tortured, while their families were humiliated in March 2011. These events ignited the spark of the Syrian uprising across the country. He is also accused of responsibility for further acts of torture and massacres against civilians.\n",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":294},"Written in Damascus in May 2026\n",{"content":15},{"content":43},"01KT99JZQQKZZ3TT0D9MTWJVJW",{"content":299,"id":302},{"items":300},{"content":301},[],"01KT99JZQTACQ9Z75KB77KWSRS",{"content":304},[305,343,366,422],{"id":71,"content":306},{"blocks":307,"settings":333,"headline":338,"navigation":340,"tags":342},{"content":308},[309,324],{"id":76,"content":310,"type":94},{"image":311,"more":314,"footnotes":318,"caption":320,"isFullWidth":322,"isZoomable":323},{"content":312,"id":82},{"name":313},{"content":81},{"content":315,"id":87},{"buttons":316},{"content":317},[],{"content":319},[],{"content":321},"The phrase \"Down with Bashar\" was sprayed on the walls of Daraa in the outbreak of the Syrian Revolution 2011. © Jan Sefti",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"id":96,"content":325,"type":46},{"footnotes":326,"text":328,"isEmphasized":330,"isLarger":331,"isQuote":332},{"content":327},[],{"content":329},"With the support of the head of the National Commission for Transitional Justice, my name was placed on the attendance list for the second hearing of the trial, which was held on 10 May. The number of Syrian and international lawyers, activists, and journalists wishing to attend the trial is enormous, while the courtroom seats, in my estimation, can accommodate no more than seventy people.\n\nMy determination to attend the hearing led me to arrive early at the Palace of Justice in central Damascus. I entered the chamber of the Fourth Criminal Court – designated for transitional justice trials – an hour before the session began. Ironically, this is the same courtroom where my father, Riad Seif, was sentenced to five years in prison in 2001 on charges of “undermining the constitution,” after he called for political pluralism and an end to the Ba’ath Party’s monopoly on power. It is also the same courtroom where my father and his colleagues from the Damascus Declaration were sentenced in 2008 to two and a half years in prison for “forming a secret organization.” At that time, it was known as the Second Criminal Court.\n\nThat hour of waiting stirred painful memories: I saw my father behind bars again, the prosecution demanding the harshest penalties. I relived the moment the verdict was read: five years in prison and the stripping of his civil rights. Then came the second trial – images of my father and his colleagues crowded into an iron cage in prison uniforms, and Dr. Fidaa Hourani standing beside it, separated as a woman who could not be confined among the men.\n\nThese memories faded only when the defendant entered the room.

This shift reflected the court’s effort to regulate the proceedings within the framework set by the Syrian Code of Criminal Procedure, thereby strengthening the guarantees of a fair trial.\n\nAt the beginning, the presiding judge read out the indictment. It included legal categorizations such as crimes against humanity, war crimes, and grave violations of the Geneva Conventions. These classifications are significant, as they effectively preclude defenses based on statutes of limitations or the application of prior amnesty laws. This marks an unprecedented development before Syrian courts.\n\nSyrian criminal law does not currently contain provisions defining international crimes or their corresponding penalties. Meanwhile, the draft transitional justice law – which would criminalize such acts – is still pending approval by the People’s Assembly. The Assembly itself is still awaiting the list of members to be appointed by the transitional President, Mr. Ahmad Al Sharaa, so it can be fully constituted and convene to pass legislation.\n\nPerhaps the most contentious issue among Syrian legal and human rights circles is the fact that these trials have begun in the absence of a clearly enacted legal framework. Here, the judiciary's task becomes more difficult. On the one hand, the popular pressure and the victims’ pain and need to see perpetrators held accountable are understandable and should be respected. On the other hand, these initial trials will lay the groundwork for a long process of accountability that must be built on strong legal foundations that do not compromise any victims’ rights and protections. The most pressing and complex question remains: once the new transitional justice law is adopted, will it be applied retroactively to trials that began before its enactment? Or will the proceedings continue under existing Syrian law, which provides for the death penalty in cases of premeditated murder if proven?\n\nIn addition to these broader questions, the proceedings were not without well-founded criticism from lawyers and legal experts, particularly regarding the legal classification in the indictment. One of the main objections is that charges of war crimes cannot be applied to events in early 2011, since the situation in Syria was not classified as a non-international armed conflict until July of that year. Some also criticized the omission of serious crimes such as enforced disappearance and persecution as crimes against humanity.\n\nIn contrast to these critiques, others argue that the indictment merely reflects the view of the referring judge and does not bind the court in any way. What ultimately matters, they contend, is the course of the trial itself and the final judgment, which will reflect the court’s own assessment and legal reasoning.\n\nWhether one sides with the critics or the defenders, it must be said that the presiding judge demonstrated firm control over the session and a thorough command of the case file, as reflected in his professionalism and in the nature of the questions directed to the defendant during the interrogation. This questioning was set to continue at the next hearing on 19 May.\n\nAnother striking irony in this trial is that the presiding judge, Fakhr al-Din al-Aryan, is himself a defector from the Assad regime. The regime had previously issued death sentences against him in absentia and confiscated his assets. It is also worth noting that the Ministry of Justice extended invitations to several civil society organizations to send representatives to attend the trial sessions. This is a noteworthy and commendable precedent, as it signals recognition of the role of civil society in monitoring judicial proceedings.\n",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":357,"id":136},{"backgroundColor":358,"isTextBlack":359,"hasLineTop":360},{"content":15},{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":362},"A trial – without a legal framework?\n",{"content":364}," A trial?",{"content":15},{"id":143,"content":367},{"blocks":368,"settings":412,"headline":417,"navigation":419,"tags":421},{"content":369},[370,385,394,403],{"id":148,"content":371,"type":94},{"image":372,"more":375,"footnotes":379,"caption":381,"isFullWidth":383,"isZoomable":384},{"content":373,"id":154},{"name":374},{"content":153},{"content":376,"id":159},{"buttons":377},{"content":378},[],{"content":380},[],{"content":382},"Joumana Seif during one of the many sessions with the Transitional Justice Commission © Transitional Justice Commission",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"id":167,"content":386,"type":46},{"footnotes":387,"text":389,"isEmphasized":391,"isLarger":392,"isQuote":393},{"content":388},[],{"content":390},"Before concluding my letter, I would like to inform you that I have completed my work as a member of the National Commission for Transitional Justice at the end of March. I had submitted my resignation in February, with a commitment to continue working through the end of March to ensure a professional handover of my responsibilities. I do not exaggerate in saying that throughout the seven months I spent with the Commission, I carried out my duties with the utmost seriousness and dedication.\n\nI can summarize the reasons for my resignation as stemming from the absence of a clear national strategy for transitional justice in the foreseeable future. In addition, my understanding of independence, inclusivity, and non-discrimination among victims as fundamental principles that must guide the transitional justice process differs from the direction in which matters are currently proceeding. I still hope that my assessment may prove to be mistaken.\n\nIn any case, more than a month after my resignation, I do not regret my decision. It has allowed me to dedicate myself fully to managing the Riad Seif Human Rights Foundation, which plays a supportive and complementary role to the work of the Commission. I firmly believe that the pursuit of transitional justice is not solely the responsibility of official bodies; rather, a significant part of this responsibility lies with civil society. Civil society must work to empower and support victims and affected communities as key actors across all pillars of transitional justice: truth-seeking, accountability, reparations, memorialization, and institutional reform – ultimately striving toward sustainable peace.\n\nWhat has brought me particular comfort after my resignation is that my colleagues and I have maintained strong relationships grounded in mutual respect and goodwill, along with a shared commitment to continued support and cooperation.\n",{"content":43},{"content":43},{"content":43},{"id":177,"content":395,"type":46},{"footnotes":396,"text":398,"isEmphasized":400,"isLarger":401,"isQuote":402},{"content":397},[],{"content":399},"With warm wishes,\n\nJoumana Seif\n",{"content":184},{"content":43},{"content":43},{"id":188,"content":404,"type":46},{"footnotes":405,"text":407,"isEmphasized":409,"isLarger":410,"isQuote":411},{"content":406},[],{"content":408},"Would you like to read regular updates from Damascus?
