We encourage everyone to send e-letters to (1) UN Officials, Heads of State, Foreign Ministers, as well as to (2) the embassies of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in order to address the mental and physical state of the IRI’s prisoners of conscience; many of whom are subjected to gruesome prison conditions and denied medical treatment. A number of prisoners are suffering serious health problems exacerbated by the atrocious prison conditions. The IRI is targeting prisoners of conscience by forcing them to endure overcrowding, disease, unsanitary conditions, malnutrition, and low-quality food, all while restricting or refusing prisoners access to medical care. There have been several confirmed reports of rancid food, germ-ridden bedding, and arbitrarily-restricted access to medical care.
