Syrian President Bashar Assad has extended the validity of the decree on the amnesty for militants who decided to lay down weapons, the presidential office said Thursday.
The July decree said that armed militants hiding from justice shall be exempt from liability if they surrender and hand over their weapons to judicial authorities or the police within three months from the date of that decree’s publication.
“Assad had issued a decree … on the extension of validity of the decree number 15 issued on July 28, 2016, for 3 more months,” the office said.
