Families of of female political prisoners at Gharchak prison in Varamin wrote a letter to the Head of Iranian Islamic Human Rights Commission, demanding immediate attention to the dire condition in the prison.
There are 600 women in this prison.They spend their days in a hall without beds and without access to rudimentary hygiene and sanitation. They have access to only 4 bathrooms and the same bathrooms must be used by everyone for taking showers, washing their clothes and washing other items such as dishes. According to the prisoners there are no regular meal times and prison authorities serve food at their convenience.It has been reported that the prison authorities have beaten the prisoners.
In the past few days, the complaints by the female prisoners at Gharchak regarding these unbearable conditions has led to inhumane and illegal reaction by the prison authorities.
They were beaten with batons and those trying to escape were trampled upon and injured by other prisoners.
The political prisoners are held together with prisoners for other crimes, like murderers, thieves, drugaddicts and so on.
