Human rights organizations reported on this.

He committed suicide in protest of the deplorable conditions in the prison and the violations of prisoners' rights.

On September 10, the political prisoner, who had been taken to the hospital with severe burns, was denied further treatment and returned to prison.

Last year, Kazem Alinejad was arrested and sentenced to ten years in prison for "insulting the saints," "opposing national security," and "propaganda against the government."

It should be noted that Amnesty International stated in its 108-page report on Iranian prisons that prisoners' detention conditions are intolerable.
