Released from prison in 2004, he was further subjected to a broad array of restrictions on his speech and his movement, and arrested several times for violations of his parole terms, giving interviews to foreign journalists and attempting to leave Israel. He claims to have suffered from "cruel and barbaric treatment" at the hands of prison authorities, and suggests that these would have been different if he had not converted to Christianity.<ref>{{cite news\|title=Israeli nuclear spy released\|url=https://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/meast/04/21/israel.vanunu\|work=CNN\|date=21 April 2004\|access-date=12 February 2009}}</ref>
