8th Sept 2023 - A group of political prisoners who were transferred from Evin to Ghezel Hesar prison on the morning of Sunday, September 3, are confined in two cells designated as quarantine areas for prisoners awaiting execution. These cells are extremely small, with limited space for sleeping, forcing several prisoners to rest in the corridor and near the ablution area at night.
These prisoners have been on hunger strike since entering this prison. The prisoners, who were transferred directly from Gohardasht prison to Ghezel Hesar a few weeks ago, are also on hunger strike.
These prisoners were beaten, handcuffed, and transferred from Evin to Ghezel Hesar on Sunday. The wardens did not allow the prisoners to take their belongings, and the prisoners’ belongings were smashed or looted in Ward 8 of Evin prison.
