Prisoner Mohsen Beikvand Murdered in Rajai Shahr Prison
Persian Report by HRANA | September 2, 2010
Translation by P2E
According to reports by HRANA, Mohsen Beikvand who had been repeatedly tortured by prison guards was murdered in ward 6 of hall 16 in Rajai Shahr prison on August 31st.
In mid-June 2010, Mohsen Beikvand was transferred to a solitary cell in Rajai Shahr prison.
Reportedly, prisoners confined in Rajai Shahr prison believe prison authorities directly issued an order [to other prisoners] to murder Beikvand. The murder of prisoners by other prisoners [is commonly] organized and directed by prison authorities.
In June 2010, HRANA released a report that included a video clip revealing the torture of Beikvand while in prison. According to documents, both of Beikvand’s legs were broken and his arms endured extensive trauma. His body was also burned while under torture.
