Great Tehran Penitentiary
The Great Tehran Penitentiary (Persian: ندامتگاه مرکزی تهران بزرگ) is a prison approximately 32 km (20 mi) south of Tehran.
Sometimes called Tehran Central Prison, it is a large prison, also known as "فشافویه ", "Fashafoyeh" or "Hasanabad Qom Prison". It was built in 2012 in the Hassan_Abad region south of Tehran, in the deserts of the Tehran-Qom road.
Several thousands of prisoners have been or are being transferred to the Great Tehran Penitentiary from Evin, Gohardasht (Rajai Shahr) and Ghezel Hessar prisons.
In June 2016, the Ghanoon newspaper is being sued for describing a money-making operation through the Great Tehran Penitentiary, as well as the prison’s poor living conditions and ill treatment of detainees.
In August 2017, a detainee describes torture and inhumane conditions, including overcrowding, unsanitary living spaces, intolerable heat with severely limited water resources and the denial of medical care.
Near the prison is a Cemetery for Executed Prisoners (Persian: قبرستان زندانیان اعدامی).
