NCRI - A young prisoner in Ilam prison has committed suicide due to his unjust sentence and the catastrophic prison situation.
Shahryar Tarhani, 27, from Koohdasht, Lorestan province, who had been held in Ilam prison for four years for carrying illegal weapons, committed suicide by taking rice tablets. Prison officials’ inaction and delay in sending him to hospital led to his death.
