Release Bahraini teaching union leaders says TUC

Next week, the leaders of the Bahraini Teachers’ Association (BTA) are having their final hearing to get the unjust sentences against them dropped. The TUC is again calling for their release.

President Mahdi Abu Dheeb and Vice President Jalila al-Salman of the BTA were sentence to ten and three years in jail last year for their role in leading the union during the Arab Spring uprisings. For more information please click here: http://www.tuc.org.uk/international/tuc-21356-f0.cfm
