Former political prisoner Mahmoud Royaei<\/sup><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My name is Mahmoud Royaei. I spent 10 years in the prisons of Ghezelhesar, Gohardasht, and Evin. During the massacre<\/a>, I was at Gohardasht Prison.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was around January at Gohardasht when we noticed some relocations and particular confrontations. These confrontations led to the segregation of prisoners. It was the initial measure for the massacre. At the time, no one was aware.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
