The chief of the United Nations human rights said that high officials of the Syrian government have big hand in war crimes and crimes against humanity. Navi Pillay, chief of UN human rights, said the investigating team that higher officials along with head of the state are responsible for atrocities committed in Syrian civil war.

Mrs. Pillay said that she has maintained full list of the suspected war criminals and it has been kept locked in her safe. She said that she will not reveal the list of those criminals until some evidence is requested by international or national authorities for some credible investigation.

Mrs. Pillay added that her list contains names of those people, who had suffered violations. She said that the names of victims will be kept sealed by her `to preserve the presumption of innocence'. In addressing human rights abuses across the world, Mrs. Pillay said that Syria and North Korea are considered as two of the world's worst human rights violators.

Not only these two countries, but some concerns are also linked with Central African Republic and Bangladesh. "As we look around world at end of 2013, we see examples of situations where that readiness of international community to act in time is already being sorely tested", said Pillay.
