German federal prosecutors said Tuesday they had charged two alleged former Syrian secret service officers on suspicion of participating in torture, mass rape and crimes against humanity.


The two men were arrested in February together with a third suspect in France in a coordinated operation by German and French police, the federal prosecutor's office in the German city of Karlsruhe said.
