Worker rights activist imprisoned at Evin taken to hospital to undergo surgery

Reza Shahabi, a member of the executive committee of the Tehran Bus Drivers Union, who is serving a six-year prison sentence at Evin Prison, was taken to the hospital following severe pain in his head and inability to move the fingers on his left hand. Following a battery of tests, Shahabi was returned to Evin. A short time ago, he underwent six-hour surgery at the same hospital, but legal authorities regrettably did not allow him to recover outside of prison.
