Another Vahed Syndicate member arrested

11/11/10

Homayoun Jabari, a member of the Vahed Syndicate, has been arrested in yet another attack on the bus drivers’ union. He was held on Tuesday when he accompanied the wife of Gholamreza Gholamhosseini – himself violently picked up last week – to the Intelligence Office to try and discover her husband’s whereabouts. Security agents then went to his home, took away his computer and books and warned his wife that if he didn’t cooperate with them then he’d be staying in custody ‘for a long time’.

Gholamhosseini was violently arrested last week with Saeed Torabian, publicity director of the bus workers’ union, who was later released. That incident came just a week after hopes were dashed that the union’s treasurer, Reza Shahabi, who has been detained since June, might be set free. There are now five members of the union being held in jail.

Mac Urata, Secretary of the ITF’s Inland Transport Section, described the holding of Homayoun Jabari as “a blatant and contemptible attack on the union”, and vowed that the ITF and its colleagues worldwide would continue campaigning on behalf of the union and its imprisoned members.
