News Global Campaign for Jailed Iranian Union Leader
Lab ouirstart's eric Lee says over 2,500 protest emails have been sent, but that the situation is worsening. "We know that Oslanloo has been taken to Evin prison where authorities claim that they are "negotiating" with him," Lee says. "The authorities also claim that he will be allowed one visitor, his mother -- but no one has told the guards outside the prison. His mother waited in vain for a chance to see her son. His family has not even been allowed to phone him. "Clearly the authorities are hoping to break his will -- and thereby weaken the emerging trade union movement in Iran. "Remember that this is a movement which managed to completely shut down the capital with a transport strike earlier in the year, despite massive repression. "It is essential that we turn up the pressure and flood the Iranian government with more messages this week. " English: http://www.labourstart.org/cgi-bin/solidarityforever/show_campaign.cgi?c =167
