Kylie Moore-Gilbert moved to mystery location

The Australian academic Kylie Moore-Gilbert has been moved out of the notorious Iranian desert prison Qarchak in Varamin to a mystery location. Dr Moore-Gilbert was transferred along with her belongings to an unknown destination on Saturday, the Iranian association of Human Rights Activists has reported. Her departure came 11 days after she was shifted, along with 15 other political prisoners, to Ward Eight in the Qarchak prison, formerly known as the Mothers’ Ward. The prison has been dealing with outbreaks of coronavirus among the inmates and prison staff and officials closed the corridors, forcing some prisoners to sleep on the floor of overcrowded cells. Activists reported that Dr Moore-Gilbert was in a cell with 10 other “general’’ prisoners in the Mothers’ Ward before she was moved. The health condition of Dr Moore-Gilbert is unknown.
