Shahroukh Zamain’s
Letter
Address to all the workers organizations, the workers union
and the workers syndicates of Egypt,
Tunisia, Japan, Turkey,
Australia, Russia, Canada and other Asian Countries.
The work mates
Accept my sincere greetings along with other working class
prisoners from the hell like prisons of the Islamic Republic of Iran. I,
Shahroukh Zamani, the member of the working painting Syndicates, the worker
house, the workers action committees as well as the workers union along with
tens of other workers activists in Iran,
have been detained and currently are languishing in the Islamic republic
notorious jails in Iran.
We have been deprived of our basic
fundamental rights merely for defending our just rights to form the workers
unions and protest for not receiving our working class rights and have been
given heavy and long term sentences and put behind the bars experiencing and
facing the most possible critical conditions such as physical and psychological
tortures under horrifying situations in the notorious prisons of the Islamic republic of Iran.
The Islamic government
is protecting the vested interests of the tinny portions of the rich
Billionaires such as the clerical elements and the military personnel who are
nothing but the parasites and the scum portions of the capitalists system in
Iran and simultaneously in the same path, the government of Iran, uses the
policies of slavery kind exploitations of 50 millions of working class
families. These ugly policies are carried out in the style of brutal
suppression of all the workers committees, the workers actions committees, the
independent labor unions, such as Tehran bus company, the painters Syndicates,
the Haftappeh sugarcane company, the Saqeze bakeries centre, and the
coordinating workers committees by tracking down any workers associations or
workers establishment and their just cause in Iran.
The growing and continuous unpaid wages of the workers and
toilers, including that their wages to a great extent have been decreased in
about one quarters below the poverty lines, the privatizations of all the
aspects of manufacturing industries, the public services, the educations and
training, health care and hygiene, transferring and turning of all those public
assets into money bag for the wealthy and powerful mafia gangs and groups in
power in Iran.
The complete total destruction and abolitions of all jobs security
with the temporary agreements and contracts as a blank signed papers in the
language of the working class to the benefits and total interest of the
capitalist at the expenses of the workers in the area of social security, the
labor rules and regulations to the turning and twisting the workers fundamental
rights in the favor and interest of the capitalists and changing the labor
legislations in order for the unfair dismissal and expulsions, lifting the
custom tariffs in the benefits of importing the junk and inferior quality goods
with the petroleum dollars by the various mafia gangs and groups in power which
has resulted the total annihilations of all domestic productions from both the
sectors, the massive unemployment and poverty, huge lay – offs of the working class.
The intensifications of oppressive and repressive measures in
the working environment by the government tugs and informants recruited for the
purpose into the offices, educational institutions, the worker house and other
working places, the ruining of all cooperative and productions as well as the
distributions of goods as are frequently looting and plundering by the mafia
groups in powers and the constant oppressive measures of any slightest protest
and strikes especially in the oil industries, machinery industries, the Iran
Khodroo factory which has shown and indicated the fearful behavior of the
Islamic government from these workers organizations in Iran.
The Islamic government of Iran is the steward and partner of
multinationals imperialist corporations in implementing the policies and agenda
of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank (WB), to intensify
and put pressures on the working class and toiling classes as well. To stand up and oppose the increasing and
conducted oppressive policies of the world capitalists classes against the
working class people in Iran, as a battalion army of the world working class
people should know and realize that they have very much pain and problems in
common with the other working class movement and consequently they ought to be firm and stand against any invasion by their capitalists class enemy through the
forming of an international united front
mainly based on their fundamental political and economical demands of the working class.
Working brothers and sisters
In order to serve and
appease the world capitalists class, the Islamic government as a member of the International
Labor Organization ( ILO), neither attach nor respects the least importance of
the labor conventions regulated by such organizations, and ironically this Islamic political system totally ignores
even its own constitutional article of 26, referring to the labor laws and regulations and brutally
suppress any slightest working rights
and demands by cracking down any workers organizations with the policies
of intimidations, arrest and put behind
bars for long term imprisonment in the showcase judicial and mockery trial
without any independent judiciary and denying any defense lawyer or legal aid
to the workers by the order of the anti
human notorious ministry of security and intelligence services in Iran.
The detained workers activists are deprived of any basic
legal rights and legal aid and under the recommendations of the hell like and
inhuman security and intelligent forces, are put behind bars and given heavy
prison terms by the government judges.
I, Shahroukh Zamani, was sentenced to 11 years jail term,
Rasoul Badaghi, the members of the teachers associations was given 6 years,
Behnam Ebrahimzadeh with 5 years, Reza Shahabi, with 6 years, Mohammad Jarrahi,
with 5 years, Pedram Nasrullahi with 3 years and many others are detained and
suffering under most brutal and inhuman prisons of the Islamic government in
Iran. The workers activists are frequently subjected to increase oppressions
through constant harassment,
intimidations, persecutions, expulsions from their jobs, detentions, for long
term prisons and kept under the suppressive police security forces so that the
labor class would not be able to struggle and stay leaderless and without
organization and under such extreme circumstances the threat of joblessness, hunger,
poverty and unemployment results more and more wealth for the rich and
capitalists classes in Iran and the world.
We, the jailed workers
of Iran, call upon and demand from all
international workers organizations and national workers organizations in
various countries particularly from the Middle East and other Asia to array and
struggle in the line of our fights against the policies of the anti workers
particularly against the Islamic government and announce their solidarities and
support for our cause and activities with
various means and pressure the International demand against the anti workers
policies of the Islamic government and increase pressure in uniting the workers
in Iran by showing their massive solidarity and support.
The remedy is the unity and organizations
Workers of the World Unite
