The whereabouts and the fate of 16 prisoners sentenced to death in Central Prison and transferred to the solitary confinements to implement their sentences is in limbo.
There is no confirmation of the fate of 16 prisoners who have been scheduled to be hanged early this week, but the families are worrying and saying they probably have been executed by now.
According to unconfirmed reports, also a number of other prisoners, who were sentenced to death, have been transferred to Ghazvin Prison from Karaj central prison.
As a systematic and routine procedure, these transfers are done a day prior to the executions, but it is not known that the executions have been carried on at the same time, or they have been divided into smaller groups and sent to other cities to have their sentenced carried out.
A human rights activist in Iran, believes that Karaj central prison does not have enough facilities to execute all 16 prisoners  collectively at once, and usually the prisoners sentenced to death, are divided in to smaller groups and transferred to other prisons including the Ghezel-Hesar to be hanged.
