Majid Hamidi was released from Amir Alam Hospital in Tehran and returned to Sanandaj. His surgery was not completely done because doctors were unable to remove one of the bullets that hit him in his neck, because by removing that bullet there would have been a great risk of damaging his nervous system around his eyes and mouth. Mr. Hamidi has issued a statement in which he condemned the attempted assassination against himself as a cowardly act by those that are extremely scared of the rise of the Iranian labour movement. Mr. Hamidi thanked all individuals and organizations that have been condemning this attempted assassination. He vowed to continue his activities as a labour activist for the achievement of the working class demands.
