Although this news is unsurprising considering the rampant spread of #COVID19 and terrible prison conditions in #Iran, it is nevertheless devastating. 2/5 The cellmate’s sister, @KRadjabi, tweeted this message, explaining that her brother had been taken to the hospital for a separate issue and had tested positive for #COVID19 prior to going into surgery. He is now being kept in prison quarantine.
