30 men were charged with sodomy, drinking alcohol, and using
psychedelic drugs.
The Islamic Republic of Iran arrested more than 30 men suspected
of being homosexuals at a private party last week in the Esfahan
province, the prominent Canadian NGO Iranian Railroad for Queer
Refugees reported on Thursday.
“IRQR received several reports in the last few days and we were
able to confirm that police attacked guests and physically beat
them. Police detained the men, ages 16 to 30, at the Basij
[Revolutionary Guard Militia] Station and then transferred them
to Esfahan’s Dastgerd Prison. A few people managed to escape and
we received reports that there were several heterosexual
individuals among those arrested,” the human rights NGO wrote on
its website Thursday.
Authorities raided the party in the Bahadoran district of
central Iran and fired their guns while seizing the men.
IRQR added, “After a few days, all the families were informed by
Basij that their sons were arrested for sodomy. A special
prosecutor has been assigned to their cases and they were
charged with sodomy, drinking alcohol and using psychedelic
drugs.
It was reported that prisoners will be sent to Esfahan’s Medical
Jurisprudence Department for anal examination in order to
provide evidence of homosexual acts to the court.”
They might throw these queers off roofs and post the videos on
the Internet.
