An Iranian diplomat freed last week after being abducted in Iraq in February has said he was tortured by his captors, including CIA agents.
Jalal Sharafi, the second secretary at Iran's embassy in Baghdad, told Iranian media the agents had interrogated him on his country's role in Iraq.
Mr Sharafi said he had been taken from his car by men in Iraqi army uniforms.
The White House said the US had not been involved in his detention, and it welcomed Mr Sharafi's return to Iran.
