Swedish court certifies life sentence for Iranian citizen

MojNews-Hamid Nouri, an Iranian citizen has been illegally imprisoned for more than 50 months by Swedish Police according to baseless allegations. 

The Swedish court Svea Court of Appeal said in a statement on Thursday it "affirmed the judgment... in significant parts" of 62-year-old Hamid Noury(i), who in July 2022 was given a life sentence for alleged "grave breaches of international humanitarian law and murder."

The 62-year-old Iranian citizen and also the Iranain foreign ministry have vehemently rejected the accusations leveled by the Swedish court against him, saying that the verdict was issued under the influence of the Iranian adversary terrorist groups, most notably the MKO based in Europe who also act on behalf of some hostile regimes such as the Zionist Israeli regime. 

Last July, a Swedish court sentenced Nouri to life imprisonment. The court, which was described by Iran as illegitimate in the first place, convicted Nouri of "war crimes and crimes against humanity" entirely based on claims made by MKO terrorists living in exile across Europe.

He has been placed in solitary confinement since his illegal arrest.
