A dissident Iranian labour leader who is serving a five-year jail sentence has been hospitalised with a heart problem, a source close to him said yesterday. Mansoor Osanloo, leader of a union grouping bus drivers, was detained in July last year for "distributing statements against the system" and a judiciary official was in October quoted as saying he had been sentenced to jail.
This should be excerpted. Sorry.
Yeah.. you can get eye problems in an Iranian prison. They bamboo shoots jammed under your eyelids sometimes arent sanitary.
