Last week, the Iranian regime took the ambassadors of 45 foreign
countries for a tour of the notorious Evin prison in Tehran to judge for
themselves how the state treats prisoners. The tour came one day after
Javad Larijani, the head of the Iranian regime's so-called "Human Rights
Organization," claimed there are no political prisoners in Iran.
This was an attempt to debunk the increasing wave of international
criticism at Iran's human rights violations, especially in its prisons.
One example is Majid Assadi,
a political activist who was arrested by agents of the regime's
intelligence ministry on Feb. 18. Assadi was kept in solitary
confinement under severe duress for 50 days, and was incarcerated in
Evin's wards 209 and 240 for months before being transferred to the
Gohadasht prison in Karaj, west of Tehran.
