Geneva---UN investigators said Friday they were prepared to publish secret lists of alleged war criminals in Syria to help protect civilians at risk of human rights abuses in the war-torn country.
A commission of inquiry said it hoped that publishing the confidential list it has been drawing up throughout Syria's nearly four-year civil war and "putting alleged perpetrators on notice" would "serve to maximise the potential deterrent effect" and "help to protect people at risk of abuse."
