Iranian regime mounts pressure against prisoners in Evin Evin Prison in Tehran Iran, September 1, 2019 –According to reports, Gholamreza Ziayi, the new chief of the Iranian regime's notorious Evin prison in Tehran, has been mounting repression against prisoners.

The new restrictions also include a limitation on family visits. Since three years ago, Iranian political prisoners were granted one visit every 28 days even if they didn't make any requests in advance. But the new head of Evin prison has revoked ...

They were not satisfied with the information I was giving. They said you don't want to cooperate with us. you don't want to be a double agent. It was at that point that they just wanted me to say I was a spy. As I said, my accusations were not just spying. I was also accused of insulting the holy.  In my family, I had uncles who had been executed and the usual protocol is that they will transfer you to a small cell before your execution and they take you out about four or five in the morning and they do the same to me. They said you didn't cooperate with us. you did...
