  11. Middle East QuarterlyDissident Watch: Mahmoud Salehi
    by Michael Rubin
    Winter 2008
    On April 9, 2007, Iranian security forces arrested Mahmoud Salehi, the former president of the Bakery Workers‘ Association in Saqez, a town in the Kurdistan province of northwestern Iran. They transferred him to prison in Sanandaj, the provincial capital, where he remains.[1]
    Salehi’s labor activity dates to May 1, 1983, when, as a 21-year-old, he organized a labor protest in Mahabad that resulted in a one-day work stoppage at sixty local bakeries. Forced to leave Mahabad, one of the largest cities in the region, he returned to Saqez where, in 1986, the Intelligence Ministry again arrested him for his attempt to organize workers protesting poor working conditions. Released from prison after three years, he resumed his union activities, founding the Trade Association of Saqez Bakery Workers in 1994. Police harassed him, arresting him during several weeks in 1995 and 1999. In 2000, while European leaders toasted President Muhammad Khatami, whom they considered a reformist, the Iranian judiciary imprisoned Salehi for ten months and forcibly stripped him of his union affiliation. Even though he had received a permit from the governor to participate, state security officers arrested Salehi during his 2001 May Day address. Released three days later, the Intelligence Ministry ordered his dismissal from work
