However, the UK has consistently called in public for the release of human rights defenders detained by the Assad regime.</p><p>On 10 August the UK Special Representative for Syria, Gareth Bayley, welcomed the release of Mazen Darwish from prison. However, security forces arbitrarily arrest or continue to detain thousands which include peaceful activists, human rights defenders, media and humanitarian workers, women and children, subjecting some to enforced disappearance and others to prolonged detention or unfair trials. In addition the security forces systematically torture and mistreat detainees with impunity; thousands of detainees reportedly die due to torture or harsh conditions.</p><p>The UK, along with international partners, remains committed to ensuring the perpetrators are held to account. We are working with a range of non-governmental organisation’s to ensure that evidence of torture and mistreatment is effectively collected to accurately record crimes that are being committed so that perpetrators can be prosecuted in the future.</p> answering member constituency Bournemouth East answering member printed Mr Tobias Ellwood question first answered 18/09/2015 09:44:07 answering member 1487 label Biography information for Mr Tobias Ellwood
