In other news, political prisoners exiled to Ardabil Central Prison launched a hunger strike protesting the authorities transferring an inmate diagnosed with Hepatitis to their ward. It has been some time now that authorities have transferred this inmate toward 7 of this prison where the political prisoners are held, all without the knowledge of the prisoners themselves.
Following the inmates’ protests regarding these conditions, the authorities have banned their access to telephone calls. The Ardabil prison officials are also refusing to respond to the political prisoners’ family members.
Exiled political prisoners in Ardabil Central Prison launched their hunger strike on Sunday in response to the authorities’ refusal to respond to their demands. It is worth noting that the political prisoners’ ward is very similar to a small warehouse. Considering the high number of inmates and lack of adequate hygiene necessities, there is a high risk for the prisoners to become infected with such illnesses.
