Imagine if any of the British armed forces, after detention by the
legitimate Iranian government, had any evidence like this of torture!!!

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070411/ap_on_re_mi_ea/iran_diplomat_2

Dr. Peter G. Stocker from the ICRC examined him.

Following his visit, Stocker confirmed to The Associated Press that he saw
wounds on Sharafi's body that "were several weeks old," but said he did not
know how the injuries occurred.

"I cannot say who did it and where it happened," he said. "I can only say
that it happened during his detention."

Earlier in the week, Sharafi's doctors reported that holes had been drilled
into his foot, but the TV images were not clear enough to indicate whether
the small, red marks on his foot were indeed holes.

Doctors also reported earlier that he had suffered a broken nose, serious
injuries to his back, bleeding in his digestive system, and damage to his
ears. None of these injuries has been independently verified, nor were they
discernible from the TV footage.

A spokeswoman for the ICRC in Tehran, Katayoun Hosseinnejad, confirmed the
visit took place and said it was initiated by the Iranians. Stocker was not
immediately available for comment, and Hosseinnejad said she could not
comment on whether Sharafi's injuries indicated torture.

Sharafi was released from Iraq last week and later reported that the CIA had
questioned him about Iran's relations with Iraq and assistance to various
Iraqi groups during his detention.

U.S. officials allege that Iran provides money and weapons to Iraqi Shiite
militias; Iran denies the charges.

At the time of his disappearance, Iran alleged Sharafi had been abducted by
an Iraqi military unit commanded by American forces - a charge repeated by
several Iraqi Shiite lawmakers. U.S. authorities have denied any role in his
disappearance.
