As global attention remains fixed on regional conflicts and war headlines, alarming reports are emerging from inside Iran’s prisons, indicating a dangerous escalation of repression.
🔻 In Tehran, special security forces have surrounded Evin Prison. Ward 8 — known to house many political prisoners — is now under an intense security lockdown. All phone communications have been cut off, access to outdoor space has been denied, and intelligence agents are reportedly stationed throughout the facility.
🔻 Meanwhile, the situation in Khorramabad’s central prison is also deeply concerning. Local sources report the unprecedented deployment of heavy machine guns on the prison rooftop, signaling preparation for potential violent crackdowns.
Political prisoner Bijan Bahrami was reportedly transferred under suspicious circumstances. Authorities claim he attempted suicide and is now hospitalized — a narrative that independent sources strongly dispute.
🆘 These developments ring a serious alarm for the international community. We call on all human rights bodies and the United Nations to urgently monitor the situation of detainees in Iran and take immediate action to prevent a humanitarian disaster.
