Judiciary of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in coordination with security agencies, summoned 16 workers of Hepco Car Factory. The workers have been accused of “propaganda against the regime and participation in illegal assembly”. Three of the workers have already been arrested by the security forces in Arak province.
Workers of Hepco Car Factory have not been paid for 8 months and have been abandoned in process of privatisation of the factory.
Workers of Hepko had held protests and assemblies after the general director of the factory and relevant state offices failed to fulfil their promise to pay the delayed wages.
The protests and assemblies that included families of the workers in Arak city, chanted slogans against the “empty promises”, and in objection to “insecurity”, and escalated their protest by blocking railways.
In the protests, the Islamic Regime arrested 10 workers and now, after closure of the factory and dispersion of the workers it has taken the opportunity to persecute the workers.
