Beating and Killing of a Client by Officials of Islamshahr Addiction Recovery Camp
On Thursday, September 25, a client at an addiction recovery camp in Islamshahr, Tehran, was beaten by three camp managers and died after being transferred to the hospital. An arrest warrant for the three camp managers has been issued to complete the investigation of the case following the official announcement of the cause of death by the coroner.
According to Harana news agency citing ROKNA, on Thursday, September 25, 1400, a client died after being beaten by three managers of an addiction recovery camp.
Based on this report, the 45-year-old man named Saeid, who was a client at an addiction recovery camp in Islamshahr, Tehran, was beaten by three camp managers. Following his deteriorating condition, he was transferred to Fayazabakhsh Hospital and ultimately died after five days.
Following this incident, prosecutor Mostafa Vahedi from Branch 11 of Tehran’s Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for the three addiction recovery camp managers to conduct further investigations in the case following the coroner’s opinion on the cause of Saeid’s death.
From a scientific perspective, addicts are individuals who are ill and in need of help, and they should be freed from this illness under the support of society and family. In Iran, addiction recovery centers exist that easily receive licenses, yet there is no proper oversight by relevant agencies over their performance and how they treat these patients.
