Iran’s prison rejects claims lack of care caused inmate to die

Tehran, IRNA - The Prisons and Security and Corrective Measures Organization (PSCMO) has rejected claims that the death of an inmate identified as Faramarz Javidzad was due to lack of medical care at Evin Prison.

The PSCMO said in a Monday statement that Javidzad had been serving a sentence in Evin Prison because of convictions related to financial crimes.

It said during his time in prison, Javidzad had been sent to medical centers outside the prison five times because of gastrointestinal complications and had undergone surgery. 

The statement said Javidzad died on September 23 after being transferred to the hospital where he received CPR in the presence of  medics.
