The cruelty they are subjected prisoners Iranian prisons was again the subject of complaint. Mehdi Mahmoudi, a journalist close to the opposition leader Mehdi Karrubi doing time in prison Rajai Shahr (Karaj, near Tehran), has written a letter to Iran's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, reporting cases of rape occur every day in this prison.
"In Rajai Shahr whatever good looks, lack of physical strength or do not have enough money to pay protection is forced to spend every night in a cell to be violated," he writes Mahmudi. "Each 'object' has an owner who makes money with it and sometimes sell it to others," continues in a shocking story.
In many sections of the prison, said the journalist, sodomy is a "routine practice accepted." In his letter quoted the case of a young prisoner who was raped seven times in one night and, when he complained to prison authorities sent him to solitary confinement instead of taking action against their tormentors.
Mahmudi wrote his letter to Khamenei in September, but its content was made public only a few days ago and has been mentioned by farsi edition of the BBC and the news page AzerNews (www. azernews. Az.) "Here in Rajai Shahr prison, which is under their control, the citizens of a country under its authority are rented for 250,000 toman [just over 175 euros] in a system that victims are not saved," said Mahmoudi appealing directly to Khamenei.
