Mansour Osanlou

According to eyewitness accounts, Osanloo was arrested for a second time on November 19, 2006 under suspicious circumstances, along with Ebrahim Madadi, the vice-president of Workers' Syndicate.

This seems to be another case where special police and state-sponsored undercover security named Ansar-e Hezbollah are used in arresting and silencing social and political activists.

According to 2007 reports by the International Transport Workers' Federation and the International Trade Union Confederation, Osanloo was in imminent risk of losing his eyesight due to injuries sustained from government security forces in May 2005 and June 2007 after he returned from his unionist trips, and exacerbated by a lack of proper medical care by the Iranian authorities while in custody.

Osaloo and his comrades are organising a new movement to make a global solidarity of Iranian activists, against Islamic fundamentalism in Iran.
