Filminstituttets direktør: Uklogt at give støtte til instruktør efter krænkelsesklage

Selv om Det Danske Filminstitut var orienteret om, at Feras Fayyad havde en krænkelsessag imod sig, gav man alligevel økonomisk støtte til hans film, »The Cave«. Det beklager man nu, siger filminstituttets direktør, Claus Ladegaard.

Co-plaintiff, Feras Fayyad answers journalists' questions outside the courtroom during a break in a trial against two Syrian defendants accused of state-sponsored torture in Syria, on April 23, 2020 in Koblenz, western Germany. - Two alleged former Syrian intelligence officers go on trial, accused of crimes against humanity in the first court case worldwide over state-sponsored torture by Bashar al-Assad's regime. Prime suspect Anwar Raslan, an alleged former colonel in Syrian state security, stands accused of carrying out crimes against humanity while in charge of the Al-Khatib detention centre in Damascus between April 29, 2011 and September 7, 2012. Fellow defendant Eyad al-Gharib, 43, is accused of being an accomplice to crimes against humanity, having helped to arrest protesters and deliver them to Al-Khatib in the autumn of 2011.
