Shiraz Prison

Shiraz Prison, formally Adelabad Prison, is the central detention facility in Shiraz, the capital of Fars province in southwestern Iran and the country's fourth-largest city. It is a large multi-use facility holding pre-trial detainees, convicted prisoners and those awaiting execution, and it recurs across security and human-rights reporting rather than being defined by a single case.

The facility has also featured in accounts of lawyer detentions carried out mid-duty, an indication that its role extends beyond ordinary custody into the wartime security apparatus. As with most Iranian provincial prisons, it receives no independent monitoring access from UN or international human-rights observers, so almost everything known about conditions or individual cases inside it comes from monitors such as Hengaw working through sources inside the facility and family contacts.
