The  men were  suspected of terrorism and even though Egypt was  well-known to mistreat political opponents in  general, and alleged Islamic terrorists in  particular, the Swedish government decided to have  them transferred. Both Agiza and El Zari later  claimed that they were tortured in Egypt. The  disclosure resulted in a massive outcry and the  Swedish government were heavily criticised by  a great number of actors for having violated its  international law obligations and Agiza''s and El  Zari''s human rights. Sweden, on the other hand,  claimed that it had done whatever one could possibly  require to ensure that the men were treated  correctly, while also making sure that its national  security was protected. This claim sheds a light on  an old conflict that has been reinforced by the  emerge of the globalised threat from terrorism and  the violent and repressive responses towards it;  namely, how to at once respect state security and  human rights.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783843392990\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA judicial and political analysis of the undermining of the principle of non-refoulement\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783843392990","offer_id":39497182904413,"sku":"9783843392990","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/f92c6f01-5a89-48c5-8aea-d788415535c2.jpg?v=1774596392","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/diplomatic-assurances-von-olof-hasselberg","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
