According to Pars Today, Hamid Nouri said, "The Westerners' claims about the defense of human rights are ridiculous as they have seized the word human rights and mocked it."

He added, "These very claimers of human rights detained me, who am an ordinary citizen and had gone on a trip, and they imprisoned me in solitary confinement for more than 1600 days."

The Iranian citizen released from the Swedish prison said that he had undergone a variety of physical and psychological tortures.

Nouri reiterated, "The measure that was taken against me is an example of American, Western, and Swedish human rights."
