We reported last week
that Sadegh Amiri, a member of the Committee in Pursuit of Free Labour
Organisations in Iran, and Parviz Salarvand, a worker at the Iran
Khodro car plant had been arrested and launched an appeal for their
release. We have just received the good news that Sadegh Amiri has been
freed. A bail of £50,000 has been set but he is out for now. So please
take account of this when getting people to sign the petition and take
his name out of the five demands at bottom. We are amending the text on
this site accordingly. But don’t let up the pressure. Parviz Salarvand
is still being held and we still need to demand justice for the workers
who suffered a brutal attack on the part of the Islamic Labour Council. We reported last week
