Syrian colonel Anwar Raslan has been sentenced to life in prison for crimes against humanity. He was linked to the torture of over 4,000 people in Syria’s civil war in a jail known as "Hell on Earth".
The trial in Koblenz, Germany is the world’s first criminal case brought over state-led torture in Syria.
Raslan was arrested in Germany in 2019 having successfully sought asylum there.
