Interior Ministry Vows Strict Vetting Against Former-Regime Figures in Security Forces
Syria's Interior Ministry said security vetting of recruits continues even after graduation, barring anyone implicated in crimes of the former regime from joining internal security forces, with ongoing checks throughout and after training.
In detail
Daraa 24 and Sawt al-Asima reported a statement from the Ministry of Interior's Training and Qualification Department stating no one proven directly or indirectly involved in former-regime crimes and violations would be accepted into internal security force training programs. The ministry emphasized that vetting continues throughout and after training, and that completing enrollment procedures does not grant immunity from future prosecution if involvement is later proven or information was concealed. This reflects ongoing efforts at institutional vetting amid transitional justice concerns, though no significant public reaction was recorded in the dataset.
