Hannah Lawrenson: "Amnesty Committee" is correct, not "Death Committee"

According to IRNA, in this meeting, after the Swedish prosecutor and Shekat's lawyers raised claims and questions, Hamid Nouri's lawyers presented their evidence to refute the claims made by the prosecutor and Shekat. Thomas Bodström, one of Hamid Nouri's lawyers, said in today's session of the Swedish Court of Appeal: "There have been allegations about Hamid Nouri, which are not accurate and sufficient." He stated: The testimonies presented in the court should be defined impartially, but these claims are made by people who are enemies of Hamid Nouri. There is not a single witness or complainant here who does not have an enmity with Hamid Nouri. Bodstrom continued: Anyway, in the meantime, they stick everything to one person and that is Hamid Nouri; All charges are attributed to him. Swedish lawyer Hamid Nouri added: We ask the judge to pay attention to the fact that these people are exaggerating. He continued: Even if we accept Hamid Nouri's claim of being a prison guard, how can we accept the other cases raised against him? Some cases raised against Hamid Nouri are raised only by a certain person. Bodstrom said: How did people understand what the work of the committee was despite the short time they were in prison!? The person who says he went to the committee, why did he go there? Has he gone to ask for pardon!? But the prosecutor does not ask any questions about this at all, and how can this person's words be believed and how can his words be accepted? Hana Larson, the other lawyer defending Hamid Nouri, also said during the 8th session of the Swedish Court of Appeal: How can we know that the statements made by these people (Shakat) about what position Hamid Nouri held at that time are true? Questions have been raised and not answered. He added: We want the Swedish court to pay attention to the fact that if a person has so much power, then there is no need to give false testimony. The only claim is that there was a light there; While he was not a member of this committee; This committee was an amnesty committee and not a death committee. Nouri's defense lawyer stressed: the secondary court should be careful about some of the statements that are made; Statements are made that do not consider the difference between people's positions at that time; We want the court to carefully examine the statements made; One of the suspects wrote one thing in his book and said another thing in the court, and we ask the Supreme Court to investigate this issue. The words written in some books are different from what was said in the court. Larson also said: What we are saying is that this committee was an amnesty committee and it had no relation to what these people said before the amnesty committee; What involvement could Hamid Nouri have in this matter? According to him, we ask the court to examine the statements of these people who came and raised issues; Who were these people who made these statements? In another part of the court session, Nouri's lawyer added: Someone spoke words and made statements against Hamid Nouri in the first court, but he did not express them in his books. We ask the appellate court to consider these cases. The Swedish Court of Appeals started reviewing the bills related to Hamid Nouri's case on January 11. The prosecutor, plaintiffs' lawyers and Hamid Nouri's lawyers presented their initial statements in front of the court from January 21 to February 5; On 21st to 23rd of January, the Swedish prosecutor presented his statement on the main issues of the case. The first round of Hamid Nouri's appeal court was held in seven sessions, and Hamid Nouri's lawyers presented their defenses on the 3rd and 5th of Bahman (6th and 7th sessions). Hamid Nouri was violently and illegally arrested by the police of this country on November 18, 2018, when he arrived at the airport in Stockholm, Sweden, and he was kept in conditions similar to being kidnapped for the first eight months without any possibility of contact with his family or consular access. This Iranian citizen arrested by Sweden was sentenced to life imprisonment after holding 92 sessions without the right to a fair trial.
