Based on information acquired by IRNA, the Swedish prison authorities have recently come up with a new way to psychologically torture Nouri. In recent weeks, they have transferred a citizen of Eritrea, who is suffering from severe mental disorders, to Nouri’s solitary cell, without the slightest change in the cell’s conditions.
Nouri has told his lawyers that the prison authorities usually transfer a person to his cell just before his trial sessions as a pretext to confiscate his belongings, including his notes that are needed for the court.
Another problem the former Iranian diplomat has faced while in prison is that the interpreters use vulgar language, curse at him, and insult his beliefs, instead of conveying messages from his family to him – an inhumane act that apparently aims at putting psychological pressure on him.
Nouri, a former Iranian judiciary official, was detained upon arrival at Stockholm Airport in November 2019. He was put on trial on trumped-up charges made by the Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MKO), which has been designated by Iran and many other countries as a terrorist group.
A Swedish court sentenced Nouri to life imprisonment on charges of acting as a jail guard while MKO members were in prison.
His case is in the appeal stage, and the twelfth appeal session will be held later today.
