In the last week of December in Iran over 40 politically active students were called to the disciplinary committee of various different universities across Iran.
Most of these students were active on the student day (16 Azar) this year and while all these students and their families have been harassed already.
4 students were arrested on 3rd of January 2008 and there are now fears that the rest of these students will be expelled and even arrested.
What more there have also been arrests of trade union leaders and workers activists including Ebrahim Madadi (Bus and transport), Mohsen Hakimi, Bidjan Amiri (car industry).
This is not the first time Islamic Republic has taken these reactionary steps to break the student movement but also to make a lesson for others to join in. Other fear provoking actions have included at least 3 stonings in the last year.
