Season 2 of The Syria Trials tracks the story of Brigadier General Khaled al-Halabi. Over 11 episodes, we tell the story of Halabi’s work within the Syrian intelligence system, his role in violently suppressing the peaceful Revolution and his escape to Europe, after his city fell out of regime control. Throughout the series, we’re asking two key questions: who is Halabi and why hasn’t he been arrested yet?

The suffering inflicted by the Assad regime reaches beyond the detainees held inside their intelligence branches and prisons. In withholding information about their fate, families are left in limbo - with no knowledge if their loved ones are dead or alive. This episode is about those families.
The Syria Trials is a 75 Podcast production. This episode is hosted by Fritz Streiff and produced by Sasha Edye-Lindner, with editorial support from Mais Katt. Translation was by Alaa Hassan, and the voiceover was Mira Alfaris. This episode was mixed by Tobias Withers.
