Erin Ogunkeye is pleased to welcome Letta Tayler, Senior Counterterrorism Advisor at Human Rights Watch. She warns of the detention of suspected Islamic State members transferred from northeast Syria to Iraq as part of a much wider “global detention crisis”.

Can accountability be achieved through legal proceedings that respect the rule of law and provide genuine justice to both detainees and victims?
