Saeed Torabian and Reza Shahabi, leading members of a trade union which is not recognized by the authorities in Iran, have been arrested and are held at unknown locations. Their arrests may be connected to the anniversary of the disputed 2009 presidential election, which fell on 12 June. The two detained men are at risk of torture or other ill-treatment.
Saeed Torabian, the Public Relations Officer for the Board of the Union of Workers of the Tehran and Suburbs Bus Company (Sherkat-e Vahed), was arrested at his home on 9 June, by security officials who also confiscated his computer and mobile phone. Reza Shahabi, the Treasurer of the Union, was arrested on 12 June. When he arrived at work he was summoned to the headquarters of the Bus Company, where he was arrested by security officials. They took him to his house, which they searched, and confiscated his computer.
Amnesty International believes that both men are very likely to be prisoners of conscience, held solely on account of their peaceful trade union activities and is concerned that they are held in conditions amounting to enforced disappearance, which facilitates the use of torture or other ill-treatment.
Iran is a State Party to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, Article 22 (1) of which states: 'Everyone shall have the right to freedom of association with others, including the right to form and join trade unions for the protection of his interests,' and to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, Article 8 of which guarantees the “right of everyone to form trade unions and join the trade union of his choice.”

عفو بين الملل ـ ـ اعضاي اتحاديه هاي كارگري در سلولهاي انفرادي
سعيد ترابيان و رضا شهابي از رهبران اتحاديه كارگري كه بوسيله مقامات ايران برسميت شناخته نمي شود, دستگير شده و در مكاني نامعلوم نگه داري مي شوند.
دستگيري آنها ممكن است در ارتباط با سالگرد انتخابات مورد نزاع رياست جمهوري سال 2009 باشد, كه در 12 ژوئن اتفاق افتاد.
اين دو مرد بازداشتي در خطر شكنجه يا بدرفتاري مي باشند.
سعيد ترابيان كه يك افسر روابط عمومي براي هيئت مديره اتحاديه كارگران شركت اتوبوس راني تهران و حومه( شركت واحد) مي باشد, در روز 9 ژوئن در خانه خود بوسيله نيروهاي امنيت كه كامپيوتر و تلفن موبايل وي را نيز مصادره كرده بودند, دستگير شد.
رضا شهابي , مسئول مالي اتحاديه در ژوئن دستگير شد, زمانيكه به سركار خود رسيد, به ستاد شركت اتوبوس راني احضار شد , جايي كه توسط مامورين امنيتي دستگير شد. آنها او را با خود به خانه اش برده و خانه را بازرسي كرده و كامپيوتر وي را ضبط كردند.
عفو بين الملل معتقد است كه هردو آنها به احتمال بسيار زنداني عقيدتي مي باشند, كه بخاطر فعاليت هاي صلح آميز خود در اتحاديه كارگري نگه داشته شده اند و عفو بين الملل نگران است كه آنها در شرايطي نگه داشته مي شوند كه به مثابه ناپديد شدن آنهاست, امري كه استفاده از شكنجه و ساير بدرفتاري ها را تسهيل مي كند.
ايران كشوريست كه طرفدار ميثاق بين المللي حقوق مدني و سياسي , ماده 22 مي باشد كه مي گويد: ” هرفردي بايد از آزادي اجتماع با سايرين از جمله حق تشكيل و پيوستن به اتحاديه هاي كارگري كه براي حفاظت از منافع خود مي باشد برخوردار است” , و ( طرفدار) ميثاق حقوق بين الملل اقتصادي , اجتماعي و فرهنگي , ماده 8 مي باشد كه مي گويد ” هرفرد به انتخاب خود, در تشكيل اتحاديه هاي كارگري و پيوستن به اتحاديه كارگري, آزاد مي باشد” . (عفوبين الملل - 24/3/89)
