Syria: 19 year-old female student sentenced to 5 years imprisonment

talal-malouhi
Tal Al-Malllouhi, the 19 year-old student and blogger from Homs arrested in December 2009, was sentenced on 14 February 2011 to 5 years of imprisonment by the High Court of State Security in Damascus. She has been charged with working for a foreign intelligence agency.

Tal Al-Mallouhi was summoned by the internal security services and interrogated in Damascus on 27 December 2009. She was then illegally detained until her sentencing of 14 February 2011.

Alkarama suspects that she was torture and had previously alerted the Special Rapporteur on Torture of her situation in September 2010.
