Below the surface of the jail, sadistic guards torture prisoners in underground interrogation rooms and make them sign confessions, according to Amnesty International.
Outside, in Evin's courtyard, prisoners are still hanged — Iran executes more people every year than every other in the world except China.
Guards have been said to grind prisoners' spirits down by cutting off all contact with the outside world, forbidding phone calls and visits.
The isolation has driven many inmates insane, smashing their heads against their cell walls while others have chosen to end their suffering by killing themselves, according to reports.
And several female prisoners say interrogators have used rape as a method of torture — and have done so for decades, skriver The Sun den 12 september 2019.

The state-run Fars news agency cited Judiciary spokesperson Gholam-Hossein Mohseni-Eje’i, on January 17, 2018 as stressing on cross amputation for offenders where their opposite hand and foot are amputated.
“Other punishments we have in mind for those who create insecurity in the society include execution and permanently isolating them from the society so that they would not dare to return to their life and people.”
Under the regime’s laws, at least 148 crimes are punishable by flogging and 20 others are punishable by amputation. Sentences which are considered torture by human rights defenders and the international law.
According to the same rules many people, including teenagers, are flogged for attending mixed gender private parties or have their hands amputated for theft. The cruel punishment of eye gouging was issued in some cases.
Peaceful protesters who were arrested during the January uprising were subjected to severe mental and physical torture as well. At least 12 protesters were tortured to death.
Amnesty International in a January statement verifies the prevalent use of torture in Iran’s prisons, saying: “We have long documented the nightmarish conditions in detention facilities in Iran, including the use of torture. Those suspected of having any responsibility for these deaths should be suspended from their positions and prosecuted in proceedings that respect international fair trial standards and without recourse to the death penalty.” se:
