- Description
- Meysam Bagheri, as the Internal Director of Evin Prison, is responsible for the torture, mistreatment, and violation of the rights of many prisoners. For example, he punishes those who protest against inhuman conditions—such as poor food quality and lack of medical care—by transferring them to solitary cells or exiling them to other prisons with even worse conditions. Bagheri oversees the managers of various blocks, including the women's block and Blocks 4, 6, and 8, where prisoners facing national security charges are held.
