Upon his arrival at the facility, he was badly beaten by his jail keepers. According to the family, both of his kidneys malfunctioned because of the tortures. Despite the repeated requests by the prisoner for medical attention, he was kept in a quarantine cell for a few days with no attention.
On Saturday, Sadeqi died of kidney malefaction and his body was handed over to his family.
Murdering prisoners while in custody has been long practiced by the mullahs' regime in Iran.
One shocking example was when 18 women inmates were locked in a metal mobile container during the scorching summer heat last August since there was no women ward in Kahrizak prison in southern suburbs of Tehran.
They died of dehydration and respiration problems and prison authorities paid no attention to their problems. Other prisoners found out about the tragedy by the odor of decomposing corpses spread in the prison complex. The regime made no attempt to transfer the corpses and left them in the metal cells to create more fear among other prisoners. The prison authorities tried to cover up their crime by claiming that the prisoners died of heart failure or committed suicide.
According to eye witnesses, in October 2007, ten other prisoners died under torture in this prison. During that period 80 children who were staying with their mothers in the same prison were kept in inhumane conditions in a warehouse.
