Gholamhossein Esmaeeli is replaced by Asghar Jahangir the current head of judiciary’s Special Inspections office.<\/p>\n

On April 17, A large number of the clerical regime’s suppressive forces raided the ward 350 of notorious Evin Prison, savagely beating up and insulting the prisoners. The excuse for the raid was inspecting the ward.<\/p>\n
Ward 350 is the ward of political prisoners in Evin Prison, including those who are imprisoned on the charges of affiliation with the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI\/MEK). The Amnesty International condemned the raid in a call for Urgent Action on April 17.<\/p>\n

The henchmen in Evin transferred a number of political prisoners to solitary cells despite their injuries and their need for medical treatment and there is no news on their conditions.<\/p>\n
In a ridiculous attempt to cover up the inhumane crime committed by the Iranian regime in Evin Prison, the head of State Prisons Organization said on Monday, April 21, \u201cFollowing the dissemination of false information from inside the prison, we investigated the issue and identified the element who was behind it. And we introduced him to the judicial authorities\u201d.<\/p>\n
Gholam Hossein Esmaeeli said:”There were no clashes in ward 350 of the Evin Detention Center and it was just a periodic inspection. News of clashes between inmates and our colleagues are not true and these are lies disseminated by the opponents of the state.\u201d<\/p>\n
