Arrest Syria's torturers

To all members of the UN Security Council and the Arab League:

We call on you to stop the deadly terror in Syria by immediately referring cases against the regime to the International Criminal Court. Both the UN Human Rights Council and a new Avaaz report have found evidence that Assad's senior officials and security forces have committed crimes against humanity. It is time to stop this murderous brutality and protect the Syrian people, who are risking everything to reclaim their rights and their dignity.

Arrest Syria's torturers
A Syrian activist working with Avaaz reveals gruesome scars after regime torture

Assad's regime is quietly trying to annihilate Syria's pro-democracy movement in deadly torture chambers, but a new Avaaz report exposing these atrocities is making world headlines, and now we can use this evidence to trigger decisive international action to stop Assad's brutality.

As Arab League observers fail to halt the crackdown, Assad is desperately trying to regain the upper hand by blaming violence on a terrorist insurgency. But new evidence compiled by Avaaz's brave Syrian activists links senior members of the regime to the horrific torments suffered by peaceful protesters. The UN has already stated that there have been crimes against humanity in Syria -- now it's up to us to ensure key governments confront the horrors in this report and accelerate the end of Assad.

Let's raise an unstoppable global outcry demanding the Arab League and the UN Security Council immediately refer Assad to the International Criminal Court to be tried for these heinous crimes. The Court played a key role in tackling post-election violence in Ivory Coast in 2010, and can do it again in Syria. Sign the petition now and forward this message to everyone, it will be delivered at the highest level to key Arab League and UN leaders:
