Amnesty International: The release of Hamid Nouri makes the Islamic Republic bolder in taking hostages

Amnesty International: The release of Hamid Nouri makes the Islamic Republic bolder in taking hostages
Awat Ebrahimi

In a statement, Amnesty International described the "shocking" release of Hamid Nouri by Sweden as a "stunning blow" to the survivors and families of the 1988 killings, and added that such a decision emboldens the Islamic Republic to take "hostages without fear of consequences.

The organization stressed that the exchange of two imprisoned Swedish citizens in Iran and Hamid Nouri "fuels the crisis of impunity" in the Islamic Republic, also undermines "the right to access justice," and adds to concerns about the Swedish government's commitment to international laws.

Amnesty International has called on the Swedish government to investigate all Iranian officials suspected of human rights violations against Ahmadreza Djalali, including his torture.

The statement also refers to the continued "systematic impunity" crisis regarding the commission of crimes and serious human rights violations by the leaders of the Islamic Republic and the lack of criminal prosecution against them.

The human rights organization recalled that the prison sentence of Hamid Nouri in Sweden, which was issued after three decades of efforts by the survivors and families of the victims, was the first time that an official of the Islamic Republic was held accountable in this regard.
