Act NOW! [LabourStart] Korea: Free 8 jailed construction union officials
"We are particularly concerned about the imprisonment of Lee Sung Woo, President of the Daejeon local union. In 1995 he lost both his legs and his arm due to a tragic work-site accident at one of the construction sites. Since the prosecution has declared President Lee to be a flight risk, he is to be incarcerated until the end of his trial, which will has yet to be set. Due to his physical challenges, we are concerned about his health if he is not released immediately."------------------------------------------- posted 8:46 AM :: reference link ::
