(AFP-Asharq Al-Awsat-UK) Rights group Amnesty International on Tuesday accused Iran of deliberately denying life-saving medical care to prisoners, saying it had confirmed 96 cases in 30 prisons in 18 provinces since 2010 of detainees dying after a lack of treatment, and the true number of cases is likely to be higher. The report comes after several high-profile cases this year alone of prisoners who died in custody.
