Amnesty accuses Iran of ‘extrajudicial execution’ by denying healthcare to prisoners – Rights watchdog says it is aware of 96 cases since 2010 of inmates dying because they were not given suitable treatment, with true number likely higher | Timesofisrael

PARIS, France (AFP) — Rights group Amnesty International on Tuesday accused Iran of deliberately denying life-saving medical care to prisoners, saying it had confirmed 96 cases since 2010 of detainees dying after a lack of treatment.
The report by Amnesty comes after several high-profile cases this year alone of prisoners who died in custody due to what activists say was a failure by Iran to properly treat their illnesses.
