A sudden gunshot was heard in the jail where the Hijab protestors are being held
A huge fire broke out in a prison in Iran’s capital, Tehran, where political prisoners, journalists and foreign prisoners are kept.
Anti-government protests have rocked Iran for weeks after the mysterious death of Masha Amini over the hijab issue.
In this context, when a huge fire broke out in the Evin prison, the relatives of the prisoners gathered in front of the main gate of the prison as gunshots and alarms were heard.
It is not yet known if the accident is related to the recent protests.
However, with the hijab protestors being held in Evin prison, many doubts have been raised about the accident.
However, the authorities said that the accident was caused by a clash between criminals imprisoned for minor crimes and the situation is now under control.
