A woman who says she was arrested in Tehran in 2009 by authorities in Iran describes being held in detention and subjected to torture, including threats and coercion to sign confessions. She states that she was 21 at the time of her arrest and later sentenced to five years in prison for opposing the regime. In her account, she says guards threatened to execute her brother in front of her unless she agreed to sign a false confession. She also alleges that she witnessed assaults and heard the screams of other detainees, including people who she says were rape victims.
The reports present her personal testimony about what she experienced during detention. The available material does not include independent verification of the allegations or specific details such as the identities of officials involved, where the detention took place, or corroborating evidence. The account centers on her claims about mistreatment in custody and the circumstances surrounding her conviction and sentencing.
