RFL/RE – A Swedish appeals court will announce on December 19 its verdict in the trial of a former Iranian prison official handed a life sentence in a lower court for crimes committed during a 1988 purge of dissidents. The verdict could have repercussions on the fate of Swedish prisoners in Iran, including EU diplomat Johan Floderus, who has been held for more than 600 days. Hamid Noury, 62, was arrested at Stockholm’s airport in November 2019 after Iranian dissidents in Sweden filed police complaints against him.
