Iran political prisoner moved to dangerous inmates ward

 NCRI- An Iranian political prisoner has been moved to a ward housing dangerous prisoners in Gohardasht Prison in Karaj, north-west of Tehran.

Imprisoned teacher Ali-Akbar Baghani was on Sunday removed from the political prisoners ward (Hall 12) and transferred to Ward 2 of Gohardasht prison were ordinary criminals are kept.

His displacement took place without any official reason, but it is believed that the regime's Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS) intends to pressure him in this manner.

Since Hassan Rouhani took office two years ago, there has been a drastic deterioration in the human rights situation in Iran.

Earlier this year a report by the UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights Ahmad Shaheed noted that during Rouhani's tenure 'the overall situation has worsened' with respect to human rights."

Iranians plan to rally outside the United Nations in New York on September 28 to denounce the visit by the mullahs' President Hassan Rouhani to the UN General Assembly.

The rally, which is being organized by the Organization of Iranian-American Communities (OIAC), will press the international community to hold the regime in Iran accountable for its abhorrent human rights record.

The mullahs' regime in Iran continues to execute more of its citizens per capita than any other U.N. member state. Some 2000 people have been executed under Rouhani in the past two years.
