NCRI – The mullah’s inhuman regime has hanged a 28-year-old man who had tried to kill himself the previous night after suffering years of abuse in prison.
He was hanged on March 2, but it has now been revealed that he was already in a critical condition at the time of his execution after severing his own neck.
In a separate incident, prisoner Alireza Shahbazi, also 23, committed suicide in Gohardasht prison on April 25 after enduring years of atrocities behind bars.
Mr Shahbazi was arrested at the age of 15, and because he could not afford to pay blood money, he spent eight years in appalling conditions in Gohardasht, which has been likened to a death camp.
Mr Shahbazi had been summoned to court last week where the regime’s agents told him the money he needed to pay for his release had been increased to 15 million tomans.
Knowing that his family could not afford to pay, he committed suicide in hall 11 of ward 4 of Gohardasht prison at midnight April 25.
Suicides are escalating in the atrocious conditions in the Velayat-e faqih regime’s medieval prisons, where psychological torture and extorting money from the poverty-stricken prisoners are commonplace.
Until now, the true extent of this brutal phenomenon has not been revealed.
