Ebrat Museum

Anti-sabotage Joint Committee, or Komiteh Moshtarak, was built in the 1930s.[1] It was used by Pahlavi regime, specially its secret police known as SAVAK against political opponents.[2][3] It reportedly was shut down by the Islamic Republic in August 2000. Currently it is Ebrat Museum of Iran ("Edification Museum") of Tehran.
