International Day of Action in solidarity with Iranian union leaders
Last month, as EI reported, Osanloo was severely beaten and taken to an unknown destination. Osanloo and his Tehran bus drivers’ union has seen meetings brutally broken up and he and his supporters repeatedly jailed and beaten over the last two years. Today will mark one year exactly since Osanloo was released after an earlier period of imprisonment. Mahmoud Salehi, co founder of the Saqez Bakery Workers’ Association and the Coordinating Committee to Form Workers’ Organisations, has been jailed for asserting the right to undertake the legal trade union activities guaranteed by Iran’s signing of ILO (International Labour Organization) conventions.
