مهدی کوهستانی: گزارشی از تظاهرات صدها نفر از اتحادیه دریا نوردان اندونزی ودیگر اتحادیه ها نظیر ITF در مقابل کاخ ریاست جمهوری
در اعتراض به ادامه زندانی کردن منصور اسالو ومحمود صالحی که هر دو از نظر جسمی وضعیت نا مناسب بسر می برند.
Initiated by the ITF-affiliated Indonesian seafarers’ union, Kesatuan Pelaut Indonesia, the rally saw more than 500 workers, gather in front of the presidential palace in Jakarta. The workers, including representatives from other ITF affiliated unions, were demonstrating against the continued imprisonment of Mansour Osanloo, President of the Syndicate of Workers of Tehran and Suburbs Bus Company and Mahmoud Salehi, President of the Saquez Bakers’ Union. Both men are suffering serious medical conditions.
Union representatives delivered their message when they met with the secretary to the President at the palace. The Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has promised to contact the Iranian embassy and the Iranian government about the issue prior to President Yudhoyono’s visit, which is scheduled for 11 January.
Two days ago, members of the bus workers’ union’s executive board met Osanloo at the hospital where he was receiving outpatient treatment on his eye. It has been reported that doctors have recommended that Osanloo be released from prison for at least three months so that he is able to receive proper medical attention. They are awaiting a response from the judiciary.
