Shabnam Madadzadeh Becomes Ill as Poor Food & Hygiene Conditions Continue in Evin
17 April, 2010
RAHANA – Imprisoned student activist Shabnam Madadzadeh began experiencing intestinal cramps last night. The matter was reported to the guard on duty who said there were no night shift doctors at the clinic.
According to a RAHANA reporter, this morning Madadzadeh was covered in a blanket and taken to the prison clinic in Evin prison. The staff claimed that there was no specialist available to visit her. Madadzadeh is suffering from stomach pains and vomiting, and is reportedly in poor physical condition.
The disregard by prison authorities has led to worries among the families of prisoners who have no access to their loved ones. In recent months, there have been several reports indicating poor food and hygienic conditions in the women’s ward. Prison officials continue to ignore the conditions. As a result, many female prisoners have become ill and are suffering from various health problems.
