Once again, several developments on Ukraine, but also justice efforts on crimes committed in Iran, Rwanda, Central African Republic, and Sri Lanka, litigated or filed respectively in Sweden, France, Central African Republic, and Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Swedish case is ground-breaking, as for the first time a former Iranian official is convicted for the well-documented mass killings of political prisoners in Iranian prisons in 1988. Obtaining justice almost 35 years later outside Iran is not a small achievement, and speaks volumes about the importance and power of universal jurisdiction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">-Alain Werner, director of Civitas Maxima<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ex-Iranian official sentenced for role in 1988 executions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An Iranian citizen was&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.domstol.se\/stockholms-tingsratt\/nyheter\/2022\/07\/iranian-citizen-sentenced-to-life-in-prison-for-executions-of-political-prisoners-in-iran-in-1988\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sentenced to life<\/a>&nbsp;in prison by a Sweden court last month, marking the first time anyone has faced trial over mass killings carried out by the Iranian government against political prisoners in 1988.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hamid Noury, 61, was an assistant to the deputy prosecutor at the Gohardasht prison in Karaj, Teheran, in which mass executions took place in summer 1988. Under the orders of former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khomeini, an estimated 2,800 to 5,000 political prisoners, who sympathised with the leftist opposition group were executed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Noury was arrested at a Stockholm airport in 2019 and is the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/europe\/swedish-court-verdict-iran-prison-executions-trial-due-thursday-2022-07-14\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">first person<\/a>&nbsp;to face trial over the executions.

The ruling is likely to further sour relations between Sweden and Iran, with fears over what implications the conviction will have for the release of political prisoners held by Iran, including Iranian-Swedish researcher Ahmadreza Djalali, held on charges of spying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The verdict is also particularly sensitive because one of the four judges who oversaw the mass executions was allegedly Iran&#8217;s current president,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-europe-62162676\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ebrahim Raisi<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Rwandan official convicted in Paris for genocide<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A former Rwandan governor was&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/africa-genocides-france-rwanda-026945251a3531fb49d7d13d34db3789\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">il a \u00e9t\u00e9 condamn\u00e9<\/a>&nbsp;on 12 July to 20 years in prison before a court in Paris for his involvement in the 1994 genocide.
