Syrian refugees who return home risk detention, disappearance and torture at the hands of state security forces, Amnesty International said in a report Tuesday, calling on host countries to ensure Syrians are protected from deportation.
The London-based rights group documented human rights violations by Syrian intelligence officers carried out against 66 Syrians, including 13 children. Among them, Amnesty recorded five deaths in custody and 17 cases of returnees being forcibly disappeared.
