The Iranian judiciary has sentenced labour activist Reza Shahabi to six years in jail and a five-year ban from labour activism.
Shahabi was arrested in June of 2010 and has been held in custody ever since.
The committee for the defence of Reza Shahabi says the activist, who
was an executive member of the Vahed bus drivers’ union, was sentenced
to one year in jail for “propaganda activities against the regime” and
another five years for “collusion to act against national security.”
He has also been reportedly sentenced to return the seven million
toumans that had been collected from numerous workers and distributed
among the families of imprisoned workers.
Shahabi’s family stresses that all his activities were labour-oriented and that he has committed no security offences.
Shahabi is also suffering from severe medical conditions and is in need
of extensive medical treatment, which has been completely ignored by
the prison authorities.
In addition to Shahabi, Ebrahim Madadi
another executive member of the Vahed bus drivers’ union, has been in
jail since 2007 charged with security offences..
