The notorious director of Tehran’s brutal Evin Prison, Hedayatollah Farzadi, escaped the compound ahead of Israeli strikes following threats to his life – and an alleged exchange between Jerusalem and his adult son.
Israeli authorities reportedly contacted Amir Husseini Farzadi, telling him that if he convinced his father to release political prisoners, his life would be spared in the impending attack.
According to a series of WhatsApp messages shared with Fox News Digital by an Israeli intel source, an agent instructed Amir to tell his father to open the prison’s doors, warning that an attack would occur within "a few minutes." Amir asked whether something had already happened to his father, and the Israeli agent replied that it wouldn’t – if he passed the message along.
The source told Fox News Digitial that after receiving the message, Amir contacted his uncle, who then drove to the prison to get his father, Farzadi. The two were seen speeding away from the area moments before the airstrikes began. Farzadi has not been heard from since, according to the source.
Farzadi, who has been the director of Evin Prison since 2022, has been accused of committing egregious human rights violations, including the torture and murder of inmates, many of whom are political dissidents. Allegations against him include beatings, starvation, sexual violence against female prisoners and murder. He has been sanctioned by both the U.S. and the European Union.
The U.S. Department of the Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has designated Farzadi under the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list, which prohibits U.S. entities and individuals from dealing with him.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
So, did he release the prisoners or not? That seems crucial to the story.
Either way I can dig it.
Is he a Mossad asset?
Why would anyone want to protect this creep? My understanding is that the raid blew the doors anyway.
Israel is killing him and his son by false flag.
Factually, Israel destroyed the gates with explosives.
It seems likely Israel would have destroyed the gates regardless if they were open or closed.
Farzadi probably believed this and didn't risk his life signaling compliance to Israel's terms and he got away from the prison safely.
What do you think?
The Iranian judiciary announced yesterday that Judge Ali Kanaatkhar, Deputy Prosecutor of Tehran and head of the court system at Evin Prison, was killed in an IDF attack on the gates of Evin Prison earlier this week.
That is a good guess.
I believe you are correct, Israel destroyed the gates with explosives, see my post #7 to Bob, and tell me what you think.
It should be considered that Israel is also being Earnest, and will not pursue Farzadi if he abandons Iran and he evades Iranian "authorities".
Thanks, Jotto, I don’t know if the judge was rumored to have received any calls or communications.
The aftershocks of this exchange will reverberate throughout the regime for the foreseeable future.
Absolutely brilliant of Mossad.
[PSYOPS]
Western media just spins, not interested in traditional facts. Likely the big name MSM have no one monitoring Farsi media, state-sponsored or dissident, and just reporting instead of opining.
And he knows enough to stay missing.
He was probably tipped off by someone trying to hire him at Columbia University.
Good story I hope some political prisoners escaped. Trump went ego-tripping nutso ending this so soon. Israel needed another week of pinpoint attacks on Iran. Such as this one to free political prisoners. Israel could have made many bombings to weaken the stinking Ayatollahs. To make an uprising and regime change more likely.
Well Played!
He was probably an asset and has been extracted.
Good point. Missed him first time...let the Iranian community knock him off for you now.
