FIDH and LDH ask French judiciary to investigate on the involvement of French companies in Syria

FIDH and LDH today filed a complaint with the Public Prosecutor at the Paris Court to urge the French judiciary to investigate the involvement of French companies, especially Qosmos, in supplying the Bachar El Assad regime with surveillance equipment. Qosmos, a company specialised in supplying Deep Packet Inspection, material designed for real time analysis of digital data that transit over the network, has been called into question several times by several difference sources, for contributing to supplying the Syrian region with the electronic surveillance equipment needed to quell the opposition that has been going on in Syria since March 2011.
