Human rights violation in Syria


The Human Rights Watch has reported that there are about 27 tortures centres in Syria run by the country’s intelligence agency. The group has reported that torture of detainees in the form of burning with acid, pulling out nails, sexual assault, beating with cables and batons is carried on by the various state agencies. The acts of torture are a gross violation of the basic human rights and are opposed to human values. Such acts of state sponsored violence should not be tolerated in civilised society and actions should be taken by the international community to curb them.
