Human Rights Activists in Iran
On Sunday September 4, a prisoner in cellblock 4 in Rajayi Shahr (Gohardasht) Prison attacked political prisoner Saleh Kohandel and tried to choke him by wrapping a shirt around his neck. Kohandel was saved by other prisoners. There are many prisoners in Rajayi Shahr Prison who are mentally unstable and jailing them in hard prison conditions deteriorated their mental illnesses and not separating mentally ill prisoners from other prisoners has led them to hurt both themselves and other prisoners.
The person who tried to choke Saleh Kohandel has been recently released from an asylum and instead of being kept in a center for the mentally ill, he was sent to Public Cellblock 2 in this prison.
Prisoners have to be checked in terms of their mental health before being accepted in prison but unfortunately there are many prisoners who are suffering from mental illnesses who sometimes inflict severe injuries to other prisoners by attacking them without reason. They sit without clothes for hours in other prisoner’s rooms or sleeping places and even kill other prisoners. There have been many forgotten mysterious deaths in this prison.
These incidents are very common in Rajayi Shahr Prison in Karaj because usually ordinary prisoners are attacked and reports of these attacks never find their way to the media.

حمله يک زنداني رواني به صالح کهن دل در زندان رجايي شهر
روز يکشنبه 14 شهريور ماه يکي از زندانيان محبوس در بند 4 زندان رجايي شهر با حمله و هجوم به آقاي صالح کهندل و با انداختن پيراهن بر گردن اين زنداني، قصد خفه کردن و کشتن او را داشت که با سر رسيدن چند زنداني از وقوع يک فاجعه جلوگيري شد و اين زنداني از خطر مرگ نجات يافت. به گزارش کمپين صالح کهن دل، در ميان زندانيان رجايي شهر آنهايي که علايم اختلال مشاعر را بروز ميدهند به وفور ديده ميشوند و محبوس بودن آنها و شرايط سخت زندان موجب تشِِّديد ناهنجاريهاي رواني دراين زندانيان بيمار ميگردد و عدم جداسازي زندانيان مبتلا به بيماريهاي رواني، آسيب رساندن به خود و ديگران را در اين زندان تشّديد ميدهد.
فردي که صالح کهندل را در معرض خطر مرگ قرار داد به تازگي از بيمارستان رواني مرخص شده بود و به جاي نگهداري در مراکز حفاظت شده ويژه بيماران رواني به بند عمومي 4 اين زندان فرستاده شده بود.
بررسي سلامتي زندانيان قبل از ورود آنها به بند بايد توسط پزشکان تائيد شود ولي متأسفانه شرايط و وضعيت در زندان جور ديگري است، زندانيان زيادي از اختلالات رواني رنج ميبرند و گاهي با حمله و هجوم بيدليل به همبندان خود باعث بروز صدمات جّدي ميشوند و زندانيان را به راحتي دچار نقض عضو ميکنند، ساعتها و روزها برهنه در اتاق يا در محل خواب ديگران مينشينند و گاهي هم اقدام به کُشتن ديگران ميکنند . مرگهاي مرموز در اين زندان فراموش شده حقوق بشر کم نبودند.
لازم به ذکر است، اين اتفاقات در رجايي شهر کرج بسيار عادي و معمولي است و چون غالباً براي زندانيان عادي اين مسائل پيش ميآيد هيچگاه رسانهاي نميشود و انعکاس نمييابد. (هرانا – 17/6/89)
