The Unions strongly object to these punishments and called for writing protestletters to the Supreme Leader and the President.
Tuesday, Fares Gavilian and Habibollah Kalekani were detained and whipped when they attended the Court of Administration of Sentences in Sanandaj, following a summons.
Last Saturday, Seddigh Amjadi was beaten with ten strikes of the lash when he attended the court.
The names of the workers are:
Khaled Savari,
Eghbal Latifi,
Yadullah Moradi,
Tayeb Mollaee,
Fars Goilian,
Sadiq Amjadi,
Habibollah Kalkani,
Mohiuddin Rajabi,
Tayeb Chatani,

Abbas Anadyari. .
Also Sheys Amani and Sediq Karimi, both members of the executive board of the Union of Dismissed and Unemployed Workers, have been sentenced to two and half years jail time but there is no final decision on their appeal.
The Union of Dismissed and Unemployed Workers will launch a complaint with the ILO and the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) about all these cases, especially the whipping sentences.
