ALBAWABA - A Swedish appeals court on Tuesday confirmed the conviction of a former Iranian prison official handed a life sentence for crimes committed during a 1988 purge of dissidents, AFP reported.
The Svea Court of Appeal said in a statement it "affirmed the judgment... in significant parts" of 62-year-old Hamid Noury, who in July 2022 was given a life sentence "for grave breaches of international humanitarian law and murder".
