22 Political Prisoners Behind Bars at Evin’s Ward 350
Contrary to the repeated claims by Tehran's Prosecutor and judicial authorities in Iran that all political prisoners have access to furlough [temporary leave from prison], many of these prisoners, particularly those who are supporters of the Green movement and were arrested following the post election turmoil, have either been denied of this right all together, or in many cases have not been granted furlough for at least a year.
