Iran: Harassment of inmates in ‘Gohardasht’ prison

Mohammad-Mardani

NCRI – In a fresh attempt to put pressure on prisoners in Gohardasht prison in Karaj, the prison warden Mohammad Mardani and his deputy Darius Amirian began harassing ordinary prisoners.

According to prisoners, the prison officials have been harassing three brothers, Behnam, Hamid, and Saeed Bakhshayesh, for some time and have separated them in order to put more pressure on them.

Their cellmates said that these three prisoners have been transferred from one prison to another and from one ward to another so many times without any reason, and the prison officials have told them they would move them so much that they (the prisoners) request death and are no longer able to transfer any reports about the prison outside.

According to the prisoners, Hamid and Behnam were first transferred to ward 4 Hall 11, and after they protested the transfer, the prison guards put them in a metal container for several hours and then transferred them to solitary confinement.

These three prisoners told their cellmates that Mardani (the prison warden) will not quit (harassing them) until he kills them all.
