This Jan. 27, 2006 photo shows Okba Almashan, a Syrian man who died from torture in Syrian Prisons, outside his family house in the city of Deir el-Zour, in southeast Syria.  Okba's family learned of his fate from the graphic pictures of tortured corpses of Syrian detainees smuggled by a forensic photographer codenamed Caesar. Survivors of torture in Syrian prisons and families of those still detained or missing have launched their first collective appeal to the international community calling for an end to torture and for revealing the fate of tens of thousands missing.
