Despite the ban of gatherings and shut down of the factory announced by regime agents, the workers of the Azarab factory of Arak organized a protest gathering in front of the factory. 

 

A large group of suppressive forces was stationed inside and outside the factory.  

The workers demanded the release of arrested workers of Sunday protests.  

Their family members of the arrested also gathered on Monday in front of the factory. The regime’s response to the families was throwing tear gas. In support of the families of the arrested, the workers clashed with the suppressive forces that were stationed inside the factory.

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), hailed the courageous and resilient workers of Azarab and urged the people of Arak, especially the defiant youths, to rise in support of the protesting workers. She urged the International Labor Organization, labor syndicates and unions as well as all advocates of workers’ rights to condemn the anti-labor policies of the mullahs’ regime and support the rights of Iranian workers.
