Interrogators torture and sexually harass Mashhad students

A student at Mashhad University who asked not to be named talked the International Human Rights Campaign about measures taken by the Revolutionary Court in this city.
According to this student activist, some of the interrogators directly physically abused the suspects. In one case, the interrogator tortured a student by applying electric shocks to his body. According to this student, one of the officials of the Mashhad Revolutionary Court personally tortured two students in the Police Koy with electric shots and even after their release, burn marks were still evident on the body of one of the students.
"We should not forget the white torture (including) the fact that one student was threatened that he would be forced to eat excrements by Mr…, transferring detained prisoners to a ward where men accused of sodomy were kept in the Police Koy and threatening detainees with rape in at least one case that I know of in the Police Koy Detention Centers and Mashhad Intelligence Agency", he added.
He also said that (Mr…) constantly summoned female university students and carried out measures that were morally wrong like locking the doors (of the interrogation room), reading their personal messages out loud and laughing about it and threatening them that he would disclose their personal issues. He also used strange and very affectionate language in talking to the girls. (Human Rights Activists in Iran – Feb. 2, 2010)
