The trial of 61-year-old Hamid Noury, who is suspected of involvement in mass executions in Iran in 1988, is one of the largest of its kind in Sweden.
The criminal classifications are serious violations of international law and murders committed in Iran.
During 92 trial days from August 10, 2021 until May this year, a total of about 70 plaintiffs and witnesses from different parts of the world have been heard.
Since the case is based on the executions of the Iranian state by people linked to the political organization’s Mujahedin, who were in armed conflict with the Iranian state when the crimes were committed, people who were political prisoners without links to the People’s Mujahedin are counted as witnesses and not plaintiffs. .
This despite the fact that all testify that they were subjected to similar treatment, by the prosecutors equated with torture.
In any case, the accused is considered an accomplice, as he promoted the intentional killing, torture and inhuman treatment of counsel and deeds, according to the indictment.
The accused has always denied any wrongdoing.
