Iran: opposite January 30, 2013

The daughter of Rafsanjani, Faezeh Hashemi, who is detained in Evinprison, published a letter to website Kaleme and slammed the member of parliament that visited Evin Prison on January 23 and said it was like a hotel.
She wrote that the reports by visiting MPs are not only mixed with lies and delusion but they are also very tactless.
She also wrote: We saw the signs of this tactlessness during the visit as this individual treated the women prisoners with contempt; he denied the veracity of their statements and soon pressed for the delegation to leave, saying he had to get to his prayers on time.”
